I see it mentioned on the thread you point out, but no real answer. I was wondering if they were doing away with it due to geographic restrictions. One of the things you could do with it was have someone in the UK gift a book to a US account even though the book isn't available in the US (or is sold by a different publisher in the US).
According to one of the twitter links in that thread, the gifting a book issue gets the same response as the egift card issue. They say the egift page is down and no ETA which would seem to indicate they will back at some point. Which was not the sense I got from my email response. I wish they would say definitively.
