Rumors of a smartphone from Amazon are nothing new. They have been floating around since before the inception of the original Kindle Fire. But a new report from Amir Efrati and Jessica E. Lessin (formerly of the Wall Street Journal) suggests that not only is Amazon working on a smartphone, but that it might offer it for free.

I like that the Smartphone is given away for free, but I got a feeling that users would need to sign up for 1-2 years of Amazon Prime which is Amazon's movie, music, and ebook streaming service, or it will get bundle for free with a 2 year contract like most budget Smartphones, and regular cell phones.
I wonder have electronics become so cheap to make that Amazon can give them away for free when users sign up for Amazon Prime which is only $79 a year.
