I've been mostly away for some other projects, but after returning, I saw that Amazon has a special Kindle Fire tablet discount for students only, but it requires an active student version of Prime, which is $39.
Here's Amazon's announcement. (The text is straight from the Amazon page, to show exactly what they're offering and what's required.)
Save up to $70 on Select Kindle Fire Tablets: Exclusive Offer for Amazon Student Members
Special pricing is available on select Kindle Fire tablets to Amazon Student members with an active Prime account (six months free or $39/year plan). Join Amazon Student or start your discounted Prime membership to take advantage of this discount. The promo codes below will become available 24 hours after activation of your account, through September 1. New members, don't forget to check your .edu email and verify your account.FIREHDST: Kindle Fire HD for $149
FIREDEAL: Kindle Fire for $129
If you are an Amazon Student member in a free or paid Prime plan, the discount will be applied to the corresponding item in your cart.
These are actually very good deals.

NOTE: TO AVOID SPAM being posted instantly, this blog uses the blogger.com "DELAY" feature.
Am often away much of the day, and postings won't show up right away. Posts done to use referrer-links may never show up.
Usually, am online enough to release comments within a day though, so the hard-to-read match-text tests for commenting won't be needed this way.
Feedback and questions are welcome. Thanks for participating.
Technical Problems?
If you're having problems leaving a Comment, Google's blogger-help asks that you clear the 'blogger.com' cookies on your browser's Tools or Options menu bar and that will fix the Comment-box problems (until they have a permanent fix).
IF that doesn't work either, then UNcheck the "keep me signed in" box -- Google-help says that should allow your comment to post (it's a workaround to a current bug).
Apologies for the problems.
TIP: There's a size limit. If longer than 3500 characters or so, in a text editor, make two posts out of it.
