I don't think we should presume Amazon is breaking even. First you need to add $15 to remove the ads to make the price comparison fair. Maybe they don't have the same margin, but I think they're making money. In fact, didn't Bezos himself say the device division is expected to make money and not be subsidized by the retail business?
