Now this is cool! The Amazon Kindle (ps- I just this very second realized that this was made by Amazon.com, I’m speechless) has already been out for a few years and basically acts as a book Ipod, for those of you that aren’t familiar. Well as of Oct. 19th, Amazon offers a Kindle that has international wireless in over 100 countries across the world. Now you can download from over 350,000 titles in about 60 seconds, and do a bunch of other cool stuff. This is freakin’ genius!

What a selfless ploy at product promotion.
Ha! I’m flattered that you think I have that much juice, homie. And if anyone from a company is out there, send me some money so I can write more “selfless ploys at product promotion.” Go kill yourself.
