Kindle 2 Price Reduction and Amazon Launches Overseas   no comments

The Kindle 2 is now selling for $259 in the US. A new Kindle with global wireless will be released on October 19th. The international model will sell for $279, and will provide 3G coverage in over 100 countries.

A statement on Amazon’s site states “With this new Kindle, you can get your books, newspapers, and magazines delivered wirelessly while at home or abroad in over 100 countries. Whether you’re in Paris, Mumbai, or Sao Paulo, you can think of a book and be reading it in less than 60 seconds.

Actually, it appears that the “2″ has been dropped; now there is a Kindle with US wireless coverage for $259, a Kindle with US and international wireless for $279, and the Kindle DX remains $489.  Refurbished Kindles are still $219, and the refurbished Kindle DX is still $399.
