And they're actually giving pretty reasonable promo codes.

For some reason, I didn't get one--probably because my device is no longer registered on Amazon.com. Not that I have any real reason to run out and buy a new Kindle anyway.

Fair points. Much better sunsetting here than what most companies do. The network shutdown is out of Amazon's control, and the offers are generous.

A lot better than than what happened with my TracDot luggage trackers with lifetime service. They were 2G based and simply died when the 2G went away.
