   Rethinking this, I wonder if it indicates Amazon is making more profits   
   off of advertising than it is off of the sales of the product?  Or at   
   least, sufficient profits that it is unwilling to compromise the revenue   
   stream.   
      
   I avoid Amazon these days as best I can.   
      
   Cool Decstation 5000/25!
