Amazon announces $140 wi-fi only kindle
- saturdayplace 16y agoMy dad recently bought a Nook (pre price drop) and one of the reasons he went for it over the Kindle was the wi-fi only version; he didn't need or want 3G. At $150, these things are going to start popping up everywhere.

- saturdayplace 16y agoExactly. People are beginning to carry their wi-fi around with them, and those who don't can easily find a nearby open hotspot. At $150, my miserly instincts start breaking down in favor of the convenience of 'a book of books' (what Mom calls Dad's Nook).
