Without ads, add $20 to the prices for the Kindles.

Now you tell me how that is not competitive?
Not in my country.
These are the prices in my country for those devices, converted to USD.

Libra 2 32gb - 230 USD
Oasis 3 32gb - 239 USD
Oasis 3 8gb - 219 USD

Clara HD - 140 USD
Clara 2E - 173 USD
PW5 - 120 USD
PWSE - 160 USD

Amazon customer service removes ads if you ask nicely so that's 20 USD I won't be worrying about.

I miss having a Kobo, but it's just not wise to switch financially. I'll always feel like I was cheated if I buy a Kobo with these prices.
