Considering B&N is still trying to sell their inventory of leftover original Nooks at $89, I doubt they have the stomach for any kind of "free" Nook deal.

Amazon, however, already offers "free" Kindles; just ask fans of their Special Offers.

I suspect entry level pricing has maybe one more drop (to $49) before the market plateaus. But current growth rates likely won't last more than another year, if that much.
