> unless you never buy anything from Amazon ever again
Exactly my point. You have to buy something else to take advantage of the offer. That's not a break - it's like a BOGO slap in the face for 1st gen owners.
Another thing I thought of: There are a lot of people who didn't know they were "early adopters" until yesterday. The 1st gen was marketed as "available until sold out", adding urgency to the purchase. It just keeps getting better and better (read worse and worse). I will very seriously consider further purchases of Amazon products, so they will definitely lose money over this.
