Uh-huh. Yep. We all believe $139 is waaaaaay above cost.

There can't be any doubt in any intelligent person's mind that Amazon was contemplating the price drop for more that a full week its the announcement, and most probably well before 3 months ago, so there is really no reason a more significant discount couldn't have resulted.

Certainly not 50%, but 20% would have made them look pretty good at the time, and not so predatory now.

I don't even bother to go look at a "sale" of 10% because it is a token offer. Worthwhile if you were thinking of buying, anyway, but nothing to warrant a waste gas or energy just for its own sake.
