Like with phones, and every other electronic device, I don't expect any kind of 'credit' towards an upgrade. No one does this.
Not to mention the fact that when I bought my K1 it was $299, and the K3 is selling for $139!!!

Were games an option when the K2 was first sold? Honest question - I just don't remember seeing anything about it.
I've actually almost always been able to get a credit on an upgrade with electronics. The computer store gives me one for being a good customer. So does my cell company. I bought my last TV at Best Buys using a 10% discount I got from being a repeat customer.
Though in looking around it seems I can sell my K1 fully loaded with books for a decent price. Perhaps I'll do that and buy a K3. It just would have been nice to get a little "customer appreciation" nod from Amazon.
Don't get me wrong, I love my Kindle. It just seems the early adapters who spent the big $$$ as you pointed out, don't get any love
