For anyone who is interested, I see that The Warehouse has an online-only special for Kindle Wi-Fi for $149. They call it a Parallel Import 'Sponsored Version', in that it displays some sort of ads on the screen when it is turned off.

Here is what the blurb says - 

This product is parallel imported sourced from the US Market. Special offers and sponsored screensavers that display when you're not reading may not be applicable in New Zealand and any prices quoted are in US dollars. Brand manufacturers may manufacture products internationally to varying specifications. Accordingly, some product variations may exist.

Looks like it is only available today (the 8th), so if you wanted one, you'd have to get in quick.

[Edit] - Originally I said this was a Kindle Touch, but it doesn't look like a Touch - just a Wi-Fi.
