Online retail giant Amazon.com has joined the price war of e-book readers, cutting the price of its popular 3G Kindle reader by more than a quarter. In doing so, it hopes to boost sales of the Kindle. The Kindle is available at a new price of $189, down from the previous $259. Amazon's move came hours after Barnes and Noble, the largest bookseller in the US, reduced the price of its 3G Nook e-book reader from $259 to $199.
Which of the following, if true, would suggest that, contrary to expectations, Amazon.com's Kindle sales will not increase?
A)The lower price will make the sale of Amazon's e-book reader in developing countries a viable option.
B)The cost of 3G connectivity is projected to decline over the next few months.
C)Barnes and Noble is offering a 10% discount to all its customers whose shopping bill exceeds $150.
D)The slash in the prices will force Amazon to slash many benefits it offers its employees.
E)Barnes and Noble is considering further reducing the price of its e-book readers.
