Just two weeks ago Amazon took the popular Kindle e-reader international, with a $279 USD price tag, making the device available in over 100 countries. The price of the US-only version was dropped to $259 USD from $300.
Today, following the recent release of the Barnes & Noble Nook, Amazon has dropped the price of the international version and merged sales with the US version, selling both hand-in-hand for $259.
Amazon is refunding the $20 to everyone who purchased the International Kindle since its release.
The dual-screen Nook will sell for $259 as well.
