Most of the books over $9.99 at Amazon aren't the "new releases" fiction books they advertise. They're non-fiction, tech books, etc. I paid $16 for a tech book that was $45 in paper. I'm not feeling cheated. I've seen some new-releases start a little higher and then the price gets corrected, too. I think most of the stuff I see about this is just internet exaggeration. I've been hearing people on blogs and forums that don't have a Kindle talking about how they're dumping the $9.99 thing when it's just not true. I saw the original article on this and it had an utterly inflammatory headline to that effect and if you actually read the article they explained a lot of what I just said.
