The video from Jeff Bezos is also worth watching (though there's not many details of the deal): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hxX_Q5CnaA

A lot more info! If only more people would upvote the original source.

I'm with you.

Thanks for providing the ceo letter link. There's an HN link right below this one on the front page, I'd upvote that one.

As for the purchase, I hope they continue to have their customer tours in Vegas. I was planning to take it one of these days.
