Amazon Wants To Give A Free Kindle To All Amazon Prime Subscribers

Michael Arrington — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 13:22:23 +0000

In January Amazon offered select customers a free Kindle of sorts – they had to pay for it, but if they didn’t like it they could get a full refund and keep the device. It turns out that was just a test run for a much more ambitious program. A reliable source tells us Amazon wants to give a free Kindle to every Amazon Prime subscriber.

Just as soon as they can work out how to do it without losing money.

Amazon Prime is a subscription product that gives customers free two day shipping on everything they buy from Amazon. The current fee is $79/year.

Exclusive Internet offer for iEasel

Jimin Brelsford — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 12:45:46 +0000

From: Jimin Brelsford Subject: Re: Awesome iPhone / iPod Touch Stand Date: October 5, 2009 2:27:43 AM EDT To: John Biggs I did this three ways:Are you tired of having to hold your iPhone while you watch funny videos? Wish there was a way to lean your iPod Touch against something while you look at it? Hi, Billy Mays here for the incredible iEasel. The amazing new iPhone stand that fits right in your wallet. What do you when you don't want to hold your multimedia device up to your face? Up until now, you either had to lay it flat on a table, or lean it against something on your desk. Not anymore. The iEasel can support your iPod from 45 to 75 degrees and anywhere in between. It has the strength, and the muscle, to hold your device in portrait, even landscape mode for those widescreen movies. The secret is in the hinge + support tab that shoulders your iPhone. It's sturdy plastic construction and nonslip design mean you can use it anywhere, anytime. But it still fits right in your wallet. If you order now, you will get the original Imperikal iEasel for the insane price of $3.99. That's the ultraportable, wallet-sized iEasel that pays for itself with only one use, for the low, low price of $3.99. And if you order now, I'll throw in free shipping. Here's how to order.
