Kindles on Woot today for $150 - SOLD OUT

If you've been wanting a Kindle and waiting for a price drop, this might be a time to jump. These are new Kindles, current generation. (Is it a coincidence that Woot announced today they were being bought by Amazon?)

$149.99 + $5 shipping at Woot.com.

BREAKING: Woot To Be Acquired By Amazon,

Holy crap! Woot has signed an agreement with Amazon - yes, the Amazon - to become an independent subsidiary of the ecommerce colossus. Woot HQ will remain in Carrollton, Texas, and will operate as autonomously as other Amazon companies like Zappos and Audible.

I'm sure the Kindle sale was coordinated with Amazon's purchase of Woot. Amazon owned a minority stake beforehand.

That is a really good price, especially when they just dropped the price to $189

Woot sold almost 5000 Kindles at $149 plus $5 shipping. I love Woot and have purchased some great deals from them.

That didn't take long. Dang. Can a moderator change the title of the thread to reflect that it's sold out?

i just read that Amazon is buying Woot. Does that mean more refurbished units showing up on woot? what will it mean for pricing of competing- say Sony- models that hit woot?

Well, we've seen the future. Instead of nifty (and often bizarro) stuff at great prices, it's 20% off a Kindle.

Big whoop.

I'm gonna miss woot.
