Amazon Formally Announces Kindle as Out of Stock
2
Amazon has finally announced what we all have been fearing all along. Amazon Kindle is now formally out of stock and Amazon claims that the item will come after December 24th. What that really means is you are probably going to get your Kindle sometime in January if you pick it up now. The last time Amazon put up such a note folks had to wait 45 days at minimum to get their Kindles. I personally believe that Amazon not being able to meet the demand of its customers at this time of the year only hurts its cause. Folks have practically no incentive to buy the Kindle for this holiday season, and they won’t get it in a couple of months anyway, so why bother? Unless Amazon is selling millions of Kindle in this period, there is no excuse for making folks wait a month or two to get their orders. Not for a mature product like Kindle anyway…
Your take: does Amazon’s inability to fulfil Kindle orders on time hurt its cause?
