Well, my cheap-ass USB sound thingy AND my cheap-ass USB host cable cost me a miserly total of $1.48 USD, for BOTH, including shipping, shipped in two separate packages. If amazon makes theirs in China too, that gives them like a thousand-percent price markup, eh?

At least there is not (yet) a firmware update to make the kindles REJECT sound thingies with "unapproved" USB VID/PID. But who knows what the future holds for those who leave their kindle backdoor unlocked with airplane mode "accidentally" turned off?
