How about getting Amazon to offer free Wikinews subscriptions on their
Kindle Newspaper channel? They'd have something they can offer "for
free" (they are already using wikipedia in their search function), and
it might get more people interested in the Kindle newspaper function,
thus portentially increasing (paid) subscriptions for other newspapers
as well.

Cheers,
Magnus
