I want the special offers ... but I don't want them on my ebook reader.
I'd be happy to give Amazon an email address to send the offers to, just like Groupon (everyone I do business with gets their own; yay for rent-a-servers and catchalls) -- but I don't want to have to buy a Kindle as the price of getting them. And, again, I don't want them on my ebook reader. I want them neatly filed in my emailbox where I can read them and respond to them at my leisure.
So in a sense I am in their target market -- for the special offers. Tying them to an ebook reader I don't need, and tying the delivery to a form I can't abide, is the deal-killer. Well, that and the $114.
