“Refurb Kindle lotto”: A Kindle for Christmas after all?

Found via the Mobileread forum, here’s a blog post on how to play “refurb Kindle lotto” and possibly have a Kindle to put under the tree after all. Apparently if you are single-minded and lucky enough, you may be able to snag a refurb Kindle from Amazon’s website as soon as it appears. One-click ordering is recommended.

Good luck!
