- riffraff 16y agoit seems it does have something like that, at least from what I can understand from techcrunch > Amazon says it will be pushing “special offers directly on your Kindle”, including things like $10 for a $20 Amazon gift card, and $6 for 6 Audible books. http://techcrunch.com/2011/04/11/amazon-announces-ad-supported-kindle-for-114-thats-25-off/ http://techcrunch.com/2011/04/11/amazon-announces-ad-support... EDIT: ah, it was at the end of the amazon page actually :)
