This is the Student kindle. Plain and simple. It will be cheaper and have less functionality.

It will not be a goddamn newspaper.]]>May 6th 2009 10:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/06/live-from-amazons-kindle-event-in-nyc/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/06/live-from-amazons-kindle-event-in-nyc/
5$ a week you get a kindle dx and the new york times. 2 year min. contract.

.77 of the 2nd year is pure profit. leverage that out. your looking at 61% profit margin on a two year return. or 184$ per kindle sold.

hell if i were the new york times this is what i would do. they could probably get all local newspapers to do it. and get amazon to give it a price point of 300$ a pop. give it away to existing subscribers or give them a choice to go kindle or regular paper. cut out printing overhead would be a genius move. ]]>May 6th 2009 10:28AM
