See the Sony Vita with 3G... It should be sold for more, as it was only available in launch bundles. However, it is being sold at the same price as the Wifi only model, and they still can't sell through their initial stock. Nobody wants it.
While a couple details are different, the Kindle 3G is similar. Not enough people buying the 3G used through this program to justify taking them in at as high a price.

I understand what you are saying and it makes sense from a business standpoint. But now that I know they were paying more initially for the PW I probably won't trade mine in. I was hoping to wait until I got the PW2 before trading in but as you have pointed out, the price will probably be much lower by then. Oh, well, at least some people were able to get a good deal
