Maybe that has something to do with why they referred to that model as "Bronze"?

Maybe it's like a game console release, where at launch, you can only get it within a more expensive bundle. This of course assumes that there is enough demand. Perhaps BestBuy's margins for this at $399 are too slim. Perhaps supply is low and they want to cash in on the early adopter. Perhaps the euro-to-dollar ratio dipped. Who knows?
I would prefer if they went the Nook route and just offer a tons of accessories instead of any forced bundles. I think buyers like choices, especially if its related to personalization options.
