Very nice. They did it in the last couple hours too. I was looking at the Kindle page earlier this morning and it was still at the former price then.

Hmm, a very early price drop, given that the Kindle 2 came out just a few months ago. Good for consumers though.

True, makes me wonder whether this is a good sign or a bad sign.

That's a pretty nice price drop and adds substantially to the competitiveness of the Kindle IMHO!

Technically, per the time stamp, this thread was first, so posts should be directed here.
