It alows customers to test drive the products with Amazon experts on hand to answer questions. This isn't Amazon's first venture into stores. It has opened pop-up stores in the past to sell its Kindle devices. And the Seattle Times says it's been replacing bookstores on college campuses with pickup locations.
