The speculation is over. Oprah’s website makes it official. Her favorite gadget is the Kindle.
“This summer, Oprah received a gift that she says changed her life. “I’m telling you, it is absolutely my new favorite thing in the world,” Oprah says on her blog.
Did everyone get a Kindle in the audience? I don’t know, but all Oprah viewers are getting $50 off:
“As a special offer for Oprah viewers, Amazon.com is giving $50 off the price of Kindle. Enter the promotional code OPRAHWINFREY during the checkout process at Amazon.com to receive the discount. This offer is valid through November 1, 2008.”
I wonder if this will bump Kindle says–especially in economic times like now. After all the Kindle isn’t exactly inexpensive. Despite this, I think we’ll see a boost in Kindle sales. This is a good sign for widespread adoption of small devices like this. Good to see.
