Amazon introduces Kindle with Special Offers for $114
- rkudeshi 16y agoAmazon's posted pictures of the screensavers and new "AdMash" tool as well: http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_navbox_kspot_ksupport?nodeId=200671290 http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_n...
- rkudeshi 16y agoI know the $114 price has been criticized, but I wonder if this is Amazon's way of testing the ad-supported model. Perhaps if the $25 is actually recovered through ads, then we'll finally see a $99 Kindle for Christmas. I do wonder, however, if a Kindle is the ideal device for ads. With web browsing being so difficult on a Kindle versus a proper tablet, it should be interesting to see if Amazon can move from simple "branding" campaigns to actual intent-to-purchase campaigns.
