Pre-order new Kindle Oasis Gold e-reader (32GB storage)
If gold inspires you to read more, Amazon is now accepting pre-orders for their brand new Kindle Oasis 7-inch e-reader for $280 with the option without Ads for $20 more. Or for $307 you can get the Travel Bundle with a Kindle tote bag and two Kindle branded luggage tag.
A lot of the tech websites are mis-reporting that the gold is $30 more expensive than the standard version because it’s gold but actually that’s not true. The gold color scheme is more expensive because it has 32GB on-board storage, while the $250 option has 8GB storage. The gold version is only available as Wifi-only, no 3G option.

LOL Amazon Gold Box goes in QVC mode!
Amazon is now turning the Amazon Gold Box into a hybrid QVC channel! Between 11am to 7pm eastern every day, they have a live show talking and showcasing some of the items that are featured in the gold box lightning deals. Volume is off by default. You may or may not see it depending on screen size and device. As of they time of writing, they were QVCing (verb) a Cuisant grill set, then an Alexa smart alarm clock 🙂
Here’s a screenshot of the “live box” in the Gold box 🙂

Photography Patent Prints for $17 with free US shipping
It’s geeky decoration for the home or office or the studio! Massdrop, a shopping club that is free to join is offering a series of Inked and Screened Patent Prints going for $17 each with free shipping to US addresses. Because of the way their offers and pricing works, an account is needed to see all the details (it is free to join).
There are a couple of photography-related patents included in this set. Page down on the page to see them all. One is the 1963 Polaroid patent by Herbert A. Bing [Google Patents] and the other is the 1938 “photographic camera” by Gustave Fassin [Google Patents]. Look for these in the image carousel over there.
The prints are size 18×24 inch and they are available in your choice of background: chalkboard (black) or blue or white with a grid. The offer runs for three days and a few hours from today (today = 3/13/18). All sales are FINAL.
