But does that take into account the "free Whispersync" advantage?

One point you make, though, that I've not seen anyone else make - the Kindle is not sold except through the mail, whereas I'll bet we'll see the iPad sold at Best Buy as well as Apple Stores. This is a distinct disadvantage for Kindle, and makes me wonder if we'll see Kindles sold at brick & mortar outlets any time soon.
