My guess is that all the outstanding Kindle 1 orders will ship as Kindle 2's.

Has anyone received a Kindle 1 since Jan 10th? These would still be in the 30 day return window on Feb 9th.

Note also that Amazon has a return deadline of Jan 31st for "Items sold by Amazon.com and shipped between November 1 and December 31, 2008". This would apply to the Kindle, and may be part of the reason for announcing in February. It would be risky to return a Kindle 1 this month with expectations of ordering a Kindle 2 in February though. I have no idea what happens to your ebooks in that case.
