Get a Cheaper Kindle

kindlebezos.jpgWe here at Biz Hacks appreciated Amazon's foray into the e-reading world, but thought that--for the price--the Kindle should be oh so much more. But the recent $50 price drop, combined with a new Amazon rewards offer (warning: Credit Card application required!), means that shoppers can now get a Kindle for $259, which is about my estimation of what it should have cost in the first place.

Of course, one reason that Amazon's now running a sale on Kindles is because they seem to have a couple new models in the works, the first one coming in October. Of course, there are some out there who think that the best e-reader isn't a Kindle at all (and you might already own it anyway!)
