My take from a US perspective:
- A 20% discount on a new device is lousy. We could get that at any time by swapping in the old device.
- Most if not all of these devices have already been subject to very nice upgrade deals (much better than this one).
- I have a keyboard and have heard nothing. It hasn't been able to connect to the store in yonks, but it still downloads. Which has been handy

And for those who are outraged that Amazon is trying to enforce the "license" thingy, that's what you signed on for when you hit the Lease Buy button. It was always implicit and lately in the US it's been explicit.

The UK site still claims you bought the ebook.
I got the EOL email on my account for Keyboard this morning, but not yet for the DXG (which was still downloading via GSM EDGE; the 3G is gone).
