Kindle on the Cheap?

Amazon lowered the price on the 6" Kindle 2 yesterday from $359.00 down to $299.00.  I love my Kindle as I think it is a great enabler for people who want to read.  There have been some discussions (here) over the past week about whether or not reading books is dying out, especially among techie types.  My answer is definitly no!  I attribute that answer 100% to the Kindle.  The Kindle makes it so easy to look up a book you are reading about or maybe just saw in a store and buy it right then and there.

If you don't already have a Kindle, but have been considering one, now is a good time to jump at the opportunity with the reduced price point.
