    Adorable couples :wink:

    Very nice commercial. Though I am against E books, so I can`t like the ad by principle. I like paper books, I like book-stores and libraries. I think modern tech is going too far, and messing around with what is sacred. It`s blasphemy!

    E-readers do have some advantages too but paper books rule.

    Nice commercial.

    the promotion of the homosexual agenda makes me want to get a kindle paperwhite all the more.

    however, my kindle keyboard is still going strong, and so there is little reason (other than the glow feature) to replace it.

    A great step from Amazon, and I think the ad will be very memorable because of it's content, as well as showing the world that gay people are a perfectly normal part of society.

    Cute commercial. And actually pretty effective, because it shows how well the product works in bright light compared to iPad.

    So which of the 2 guys at the bar is whose husband? :icon_bigg

    Hmm... This could either be a bit offensive, or really awesome. I only say this because it seems like this could be Amazon's way of pitching to the gay market. However, if the intention was simply to show that, as DanDavies said, show that gays are completely normal people, I love it.

    I think it's standard for corporations to design commercials to market to certain groups of people. I think it's great that they think that the queer community is a group of people worth targeting with their advertising.
