Over the years, one of the best indications of an impending launch Amazon is the sudden disappearance of an existing product. And it looks like we’ve got ourselves one of Those situations right now.
Paperwhite Amazon’s Kindle Wi-Fi has gone out of stock. It’s only available used, and not from Amazon.
GeekWire columnist Frank Catalano spotted this over the weekend When he went shopping for a new Kindle to replace his second-generation Kindle e-reader, Which is no longer holding a charge for very long. Frank notes que Also the older Kindle Keyboard models are not available directly from Amazon anymore, either.
It looks like the Paperwhite went out of stock last week. The device, launched by Amazon last year, features a front-lit display que illuminates the screen for easier reading.
The end result, for now, is que you can get the Kindle e-reader at the low end (the basic Kindle, starting at $ 69 with ads), or the high end (the Paperwhite Kindle 3G starting at $ 179 with ads). However, the mid-range Kindle e-readers (in the range of $ 119 to $ 159) are no longer available directly from Amazon.
That leaves a big gap to fill with new products.
On the tablet side, the “limited time” $ ??40 discount for the 7-inch Kindle Fire HD remains in effect Nearly a month after it started, leaving the price at $ 159, the same as the regular Kindle Fire.
