I'm cautious on their $50/yr LTE. It's definitely being subsidized somehow (as I seriously doubt AT&T is passing up $130/yr profit per customer, and not much room for profit margins for Amazon in that $500), the question is how? Using Silk to proxy all data? "Special Offers"?
EDIT: "Special Offers" confirmed, on all Kindles it seems. I won't be buying such a thing. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008GFRDL0/
Good catch. It's probably less than the 11h they announce for the 7" Fire HD. Unless nearly all of the 6oz weight difference is in the battery.
Speaking of which, "Weight 20 ounces (575 grams)" is rightly not touted in an otherwise very convincing siren call to those ready to enjoy the Amazon garden.
