no. Coffee is $2.25 for a large.

I bought the K4 two week ago for $79, don't Amazon have some policy where they reimburse you within a certain time limit if they lower the prices? I know I can still return it for a full refund, and then buy a new, but that just seems stupid and a waste of gasolin.

That is still $30 less than the same increase costs people on an ipad, so some will think it worth it, but like anything it comes down to what do people consider worth it to them.
But this isn't an iPad. Me thinks Amazon bit off more than they could chew with the 4G. I see a price drop before the holidays.

Just ordered the Paperwhite 3G and a Graphite Zip Sleeve to put it in.

Since this is all your fault, you can explain it to the wife.

Yes, they will refund $10. (I was almost fast enough. )

Nexus who?

Amazon just won the 7" holiday season tablet war.

IF you are just a e-reader and web browser then yes I would say that.. but since I use a tablet for other things and not having NFC, or GPS is something I need (more so GPS) so while the Amazon fire HD is nice It's missing that feature.

JB definitely has a bunch of big sellers in this lot.

I've ordered my Paperwhite! Happy Happy

For anyone also ordering the cover, the sales page states that the shipping date is October 3, but the shipping date is shown as October 31 on the actual order page (I'm hoping the discrepancy will be fixed soon).
