So my number one “Want” on my Christmas List is a Kindle, but apparently Santa’s elves and Amazon are not on the same page this year.

The over-priced eReader is SOLD OUT. Obviously someone is getting a Kindle for Christmas. If you order one now, you’ll be put on a wait list. Estimated delivery is a whopping 11-13 weeks away.

According a TechCrunch article last week, the Kindle 2.0 will be released in the early first quarter of 2009 (would that be 11-13 weeks from now?). I have high hopes that the price might drop a little. Heck, drop it to $299 and it makes a psychological jump from almost $400 to less than $300.

Maybe the Valentine’s Day fairy will bring me a Kindle.
