$100 Off Amazon.com Purchase Promotion

mp3 downloads are to iTunes as ebook downloads are to Amazon.com -- At least that's what Jeff Bezos wants you to think.

The new Amazon Kindle ebook reader device is a big hit so far with the geek squad.

But to get the masses excited about this product, Amazon and Chase are running a promotion that gives you an extra $100 off the promotional price of the Kindle reader.

I haven't yet seen the Kindle in person, but it's gotten rave reviews:

It looks like there's 2 parts of this discount for the Kindle Reader Device. $70 promotion code + $30 Amazon Chase Visa card promo. Don't know if they are mutually exclusive or must be used in combination....but here's the fine print -- which looks like the $70 can be used separately.
