Target to sell Amazon's Kindle e-reader

Minneapolis Target Corp. says it will sell Amazon's e-reader Kindle in select stores beginning in April.

Target said that it will be the first brick-and-mortar retailer to carry the Kindle, which sells for $259.

The retailer said it will sell the Kindle at its flagship downtown Minneapolis store and 102 south Florida stores beginning April 25 and begin rolling it out to more Target stores later this year.

Amazon has declined to give specifics about how many Kindle electronic readers it has sold, disclosing only that it is in the "millions."
