I bought my K2 at 399. The price is now 259. And the price came down well before the K2I.
I can live without it or I could pay full price. I am far from desperate to have one. I have multiple Kindles now, the DX would just be a luxury. I just don't want to pay full price two weeks before a price drop. Amazon won't do price adjustments.
Besides, the infant in my house ranks a bit higher than my need for a Kindle DX right now

If the price varies, it is not because the new product is introduced. Rather, it is because of changes in demand-supply relations.
Since kindle is still desperately demanded by so many people (like, e.g., SamuraiXSendai  ), I don't see why Amazon should reduce the price. |
