There is one lower price and one added ability - personal docs can be sent and delivered via wi-fi for free (use the @free.kindle.com address) and the browser can now be used in any country at no charge, so long as you use the wifi version (many countries don't have browser capability) and you find a free hotspot. Since delivery of most books was under 10 cents in costs to Amazon, I doubt you'll see any changes in pricing (just as those who download via USB don't get any break in costs). You may see a difference internationally, but I suspect not (unless they start giving US prices and charge a cellular fee outside the US, which may not go over well with most non-US customers). I wonder, too, if prices can change in Germany, where many things are price protected by law (didn't they include ebooks, in order to protect print book prices?)
