Colored Kindles ? For that price ?

Color your Kindle for a pittance?   'Only' $200 to redo your current Kindle 2 and $600 for a new one (and try turning that one in within the 30-day period).  I thought this story was just a joke at first, but apparently not.

They do this for all kinds of gadgets but the Kindle 2 was added to the bunch on May 1.  Did someone say something about a recession?

For those with less $ to toss, try DecalGirl skins - Average $15, very popular with Kindle users, and you don't have to be stuck with one color. Below are ways to Share this post if you'd like others to see it.
