There is already a "refreshed" model of the PW-3 released.
(It is functionally and cosmetically identical to the previous PW-3, only the model numbers changed.)

Right now, nearly everyone is still receiving Kindles from the existing stock.

If you have any interest at all in using any of our add-ins, do not wait, order now while you can still get one of the PW-3's that is running firmware older than 5.8.8
If 5.8.8 or newer, you can't jailbreak it.

There are "Certified Refurbished" PW-3s from Amazon (USA) for $85 -
But I would stay away from them if your going to use any of our add-ins, the "Refurbishment" may have included updating them to 5.8.8 or 5.8.9
If not interested in any of our add-ins (I.E: you will never jail break it) - then grab one of the refurbished PW-3s and save a few bucks.
