If you look under the specs on the page it shows - where Audio is suppose to be. No Sounds, Less Storage are two drawbacks.

I never used TTS so I won't miss it. The reduction in storage space is concerning but, I still have 2,892MB free on my Kindle Keyboard so I guess it won't matter too much to me either.

I ordered the $139 version, and the estimated delivery date (with one-day Prime shipping) is Oct. 10, 2012 Hopefully that is just Amazon tormenting me, and not the actual delivery date.

Same KPW and date here, pre-ordered as soon as it popped up on the website. Strange, just a few moments ago, clicking on the $119 (SO) version, a delivery date of 10/2 appeared. I remember the same shipping date fiasco the same time last year with all the hand-wringing and I think it will be no different this time around. I plan to just sit back, relax and look forward to seeing those familiar brown boxes with the Amazon logos arriving.
