the difference in cost is $30.00 plus applicable taxes, not $40.00 as you state.

the rest of your comment lacks legal foundation. refer to the Kindle terms and locate where it discusses the Special Offers contract. simply offering a reduced model with ads doesn't mean that you have entered into a contract and will not remove those ads (which, if you read the terms, you are not prohibited from doing).

again, Amazon has found a way to market the device that pays them twice.

if i buy the device and never remove it from the box am i breaking the terms by not seeing the special offers? will you state that since i am not using the device that is irrelevant? but i still entered into your fantasy contract and therefore am breaking said contract by not seeing the ads.
