As the new one is a reduced specification, presumably they will still make and sell the older higher spec ones.
Who can say. I imagine they will keep all the models available for the foreseeable future but if sales of the touch and the new basic vastly outweigh the keyboard they could well drop it at some point.

The touch will be the issue as it will be about the same price as the kb, although i dislike it because you need to touch tge screen to turn the page which will make it grubby.

They are not advertising the keyboard version, it's just there in the lineup, but the ads are for the cheap version, 2 touch versions and fire. I'd say they may discontinue it in the future.

Are Amazon UK only selling the 3G version of the KK now? I can't find the Wi-Fi only version on there unless I'm just being blind. Definitely getting the new one for Christmas now, only recently got the KK but it's worth having two and for £89 you can't say no. Tempted to get one right now but don't really need to with having the KK.
