I think there was a planned 30-60 day gap between Kindle 1 and 2 (otherwise, they would be dealing with people unhappy having just bought a Kindle 1 and/or returning Kindle 1 if less than 30 days).
However, I think they planned production based on what they thought they needed to get through the holidays but the unanticipated volume of Oprahs sales made them run out earlier than anticipated.
