So I just read that the ad supported 3G Kindle is getting a price cut down to $139, the same price as the NON ad wifi only model. This is due to a shot in the arm from AT&T. Now when we are going to see the price change I'm not sure. I scanned the area last night when I came in and it was still the $169 price.
Anyways I think the main reason for this drastic change might have to do with this:

So for the first time in a while we will be carrying more than just a Kindle. Should be interesting as this eReader will connect to a Google powered store.
What I want to know though is where they would put the thing in my store and is there going to be a display? In my store that section is already crowded with a whole Kindle showcase and the new tablet displays. Unless maybe they use an endcap. I do remember long before I worked for Target that my store had the Sony dReaded display on an endcap.
