The price of the Kindle might have been being used to help subsidize the $9.99 bestsellers they were taking a loss on before the Agency 5 took the control of pricing a lot of those books out of Amazon's hands. For all I know they're making little or nothing on the K2 now and hoping that ebook sales will make up for it.
