Sunday is customarily a day for reading, be it newspapers, magazines, fiction or non-fiction. So the time is right to mention this, Amazon has revealed a brand new Kindle Oasis e-reader starting at $249 (Wifi-only, 8GB on-board storage, with Special Offers).
The 32GB option is +$30 only [not bad if you read manga or other data-hungry files]. To option without the Special Offers is +$20 but you can also remove them later after you start using the device [eg, if you don’t find them annoying or intrusive you can ignore them and use the $20 towards more e-books, eg “The Ruin of Kings”]…
This is available in two color schemes. Amazon also offers accessory bundles with a $30 off combined purchase discount.
NOTE that if you are buying this for someone else or you don’t want them to automatically link it to your purchasing Amazon account, you must needs click the “This is a gift…” link over there. There are multiple places during the checkout process that remind you of this [depending on which device/OS/viewport you are in].
As of the time of writing, your purchase includes a FREE 6-month prepaid Kindle Unlimited subscription. You will receive info via e-mail after Kindle order ships. It only activates if you activate it. Note that this is auto-renewing after the first six months, so leave a note in your calendar. Six months is plenty of time to read many e-books from the KU library!
Sunday brings with it a new quartet of B&H Photo daily deals running until 11:59pm ET (or earlier if sold out):
+ E-Image EK50AAM Fluid Drag Video Head and Tripod for $110
+ Google Nest Hub for $75
+ lifetime of Google Spying (TM) included for FREE ^_^
+ Dymo mobile labeler for $40
+ SE Electronics SPACE Reflection Filter for $149
+ I’m assuming this is for your spaceships 🙂
