My pre-order was $4.71 as well. How do we get a refund for the difference? Boo!! It's not much, but still.....
I just found out about the price drop at Amazon while reading this thread. I was so annoyed that I returned my (pre-ordered) copy of TKaM and also sent this feedback:

I just wanted to explain why I returned my Kindle version of To Kill a Mockingbird.

Like many people, I was excited to learn in April that there would finally be a Kindle version of this classic book. I pre-ordered the book, knowing that if the price dropped between the time I placed my order and the time the ebook was released, my charge would drop accordingly. The book was delivered on July 8, and the charge was $4.71 plus tax. Imagine my surprise when I learned that less than a day after the book was released, the price dropped to $3.95!

I know it's a difference of only 76 cents, but I felt like I was cheated. From now on I will not bother to pre-order any Kindle books in case this is Amazon's new practice.

As for To Kill a Mockingbird, I guess I'll just re-read my paper copy.
