MobileRead Giveaway - Win a Kindle 2!

For no other reason than we're just in a particularly generous mood (well, and to have our Kindle forums kick off in style), we're giving away Amazon's latest e-book reader, the Kindle 2. If you are ready to take this lovely device into your own hands, here's what you need to do.

Winning is simple...

First leave a short comment below stating that you want to enter this contest. Then head on over to our Kindle forums and start participating. Join in or initiate interesting Kindle discussions. Share your own Kindle experiences (if you have any). Helping others is always smiled upon, and a definite trump card. Found a great Kindle accessory? Share it with us. So, basically, anything related to the Kindle you can think of and that could be helpful to others is welcomed!

Some more details:
  • To enter, leave a short comment below stating that you want to enter this contest
  • You may enter only once
  • Participate in the MobileRead Kindle forums
  • The contest begins today and ends on March 9th 2009, at 11:59 PM EDT
  • One winner will be selected in a random drawing amongst the eligible entries
  • One winner will receive one (1) Amazon Kindle 2 (currently valued at $359), shipped directly from Amazon
  • Only US residents for this giveaway (sorry folks, but I promise there will be more contests)

Good luck, and let the party begin!

PS: Even if you don't want to or cannot participate, we appreciate if you could share this giveaway with your blogging buddies and pals on Twitter, Plurk, Facebook, etc.

Count me in! For all the free press I give the Kindle among my friends and online, it would be pretty cool to have one of the things. :-)

Thumbs up NOT Entering, but Good Luck Wishes to All

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!

I am not entering the contest, but I do want to say what a lovely idea (and savvy way of luring the lurkers onto the boards) it is to give a K2 away like this.
