Whatever the profits are with a Kindle sale the sale of ebooks may be the better revenue stream. If they are using the old model give away the razor to sell the blades or printer to sell the ink then they should eventually be interested in offering ebooks to other eReaders. The volume alone may eventually justify the change in policy.

Good take. Amazon needs a letter like that as well, but there it's about making them see that they need to make their shop available to non-kindle readers.
