Picture this: Take the small newsstand ops that you see in airports. Bring the space up to say the size of the cracked book or smaller. Eliminate the candy, snack, and pop. keep the books and magazines, wifi, maybe a wine selection, hand-made greeting cards (michelle's stampin up) and coffee. Essentially a small version of B and N minus all of the B.S. and add in a sense of convenience, or a gourmet coffee and wine (probably a mix of mid to high end wines (local vineyards if possible). Keep the size manageable. Could still have the rare book, collector, book search feature as well. Take the bestseller mix and add in some classics, some local lit.. I'm think something that could be franchised--looked at Fortune 500 Mag--January issue--zero book store franchises. Take the old-fashioned newstand and... Oh I still like the idea of a book delivery service
