Mikesgirl Posted June 21, 2010 Posted June 21, 2010 Amazon Kindle has dropped in price by $70 from $259 to $189.. I ordered last week for fathers day and just called and they issued a refund for the $70 :)
SuggaD Posted June 21, 2010 Posted June 21, 2010 Barnes & Noble Nook has huge price drop too. Hmm, wait until Christmas in hopes of another price drop or buy now........
magickallight Posted June 21, 2010 Posted June 21, 2010 Barnes & Noble Nook has huge price drop too. Hmm, wait until Christmas in hopes of another price drop or buy now........ I am in the same boat! Teen son wants one for Christmas - should I wait or should I act?!?
Crue2001 Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 I have a $100 Amazon credit...just been waiting for the new Kindle version to come out in August to see if the current version drops (assuming they would still have it & sell it). For $89 my net cost, I'm inclined to jump. But the Nook looks good too...decisions, decisions...
abentley Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 Clark Howard on CNN predicted them to be $100 by Christmas......for those who have them on their gift giving lists.

magickallight Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 Clark Howard on CNN predicted them to be $100 by Christmas......for those who have them on their gift giving lists. Thanks... I will hold my breath and wait... it is a while away - and knowing a Teen - he may change his mind by then, anyway!
SuggaD Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 (edited) Clark Howard on CNN predicted them to be $100 by Christmas......for those who have them on their gift giving lists. Thanks for the tip! In that case, I will definitely wait. At that price, would buy 2...one for me, and one for dd. The Ipad is driving down the prices. Gotta love apple for bringing the competition!

jenilyn Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 Heres my 2 cents... I think Kindle has a WAYYYYYY better selection of books..... (or at least the ones I enjoy reading) Im not sure what Nooks book prices are, which makes this kinda irrelevant, but Kindle has great book prices as well. I LOVE my Kindle...

The prices are the biggest drawbacks for me...I usually buy my books for $1 on abebooks. I wish more libraries would start loaning electronic books.
