Just speculation, but really, when do companies really make such large price cuts on relatively new items unless the sales are slowing?

Apple iPhone ring any bells - sales of it were not slowing and they lowered the price $200
. $40 seems small in comparison. I think it's a simple case of 6+ months passing and the Kindle is not "new" anymore.
Having had mine since 11/20, I don't begrudge Amazon the $40, and I hope this moves the price to more mass-market levels.
