    Thoughts on the Free Kindles from Amazon

    1. 9 Free Kindles and a Kindle DX is great – However, the odds must be pretty low as its well advertised on Amazon.
    2. The pre-loaded package sounds really good and something that should be offered as an option on every Kindle purchase i.e. get 30 books of your choice and 2 subscriptions of your choice for an additional $200 or something.  
    3. Why only one free Kindle DX?
    4. Week 5 (next week) has a $15,000 first prize to landscape your backyard.
    5. Week 6 has a Yellowstone photo expedition as the first price.  
    6. Do check out the Week 8 and Week 9 which have, among other things, a free 55″ HDTV, a pair of diamond earrings worth $10,000 and a $2,000 endless.com gift card.

    There’s no better way to drum up a lot of interest and get a ton of links for cheap than to offer a couple free kindles.
