Its graphite. I can't remember if it's a KSO or not. I would check but I'm surfing and posting from my phone...

It's the WiFi only version. The 3G+WiFi is $129 refurbished. Links to both on my blog recently (neither is with ads).

I sent this to my coworker, and he immediately snapped one up. Good find.

Yeah, they are doing that for some weeks already.. it's sad it only works if you're in the US

eSheri · 09-16-2011, 05:12 PM

Its a great price. I'm holding out for the tablet!

Refurbished kindles are also available in the UK - £79.99 on the refurbished wifi-only model, £115.99 for the refurbished 3G+wifi model.

Refurbished models come without a charger as fas as I know. I wonder why. For now it's the only downside I see of a refurbished model. Well, it was used, but warranty is valid, so if it has a problem it will be fixed and it's repacked, cleaned out and all.

And one could probably find a wall charger cheap on eBay. I also read that some blackberry chargers will work

It's just a simple MicroUSB cable, so many phones and small gadgets use it.

Wow what a deal when compared to my $189 K3G from last year! It's coming up to my 1 year date soon and still no problems.

Is that confirmed that the refurb doesn't come with a charger? I ordered one and sent it directly to my grandpa. I had no idea. I'll have to order him one!

eSheri · 09-19-2011, 11:14 AM

It comes with a USB charger, meaning you would connect the Kindle to a PC to charge it.
