Although they were bootstrapped for a while, they ended up accepting a private investment from Jeff Bezos (mainly to get Jeff as an advisor). So, I'm not sure if we can call them truly bootstrapped anymore.

For the record: That money wasn't used to fund operations. 100% of operations have always been funded by customer-generate revenues.
