Patience isn't just a virtue, it's also a way to save a few bucks. And if you were in the market for a Kindle 2 eBook reader but talked yourself into waiting until the right time presented itself, that patience pays off today in the form of a $60 price break.
Just five months after launch, Amazon has slashed the price of the Kindle 2 to $299 with free shipping, just barely nudging under the $300 mark. Already a hot seller, the new price point could put Amazon in a position to fend off the competition in a market that continues to heat up. Or maybe Amazon's just looking to move as many units as possible before the rumored Kindle 3 shows up.
