Ladies & Gentlemen Amazon’s Kindle Fire!

by Elias - on Sep 28th 2011 - No Comments


As you probably know by now, there was a rumor going around that Amazon was going to make a new Kindle. It seems like that rumor is true and the new tablet is intended to replace the old Kindle as it was dead technology and the device needed more innovation. According to details revealed to Bloomberg, Kindle will be an Android based tablet and it will sport out a 7″ display touchscreen. Below are more details and specifications.

  • Release Date: November 15, 2011
  • MSRP/ Price: $199
  • Connectivity: WI-FI, but No 3G
  • Camera:  No Cameras
  • Processor: A dual core
  • Multi-Touch Feature IPS Display
  • A New Web Browser called Silk
  • It uses Whispersync
  • Amazon Prime Users watch free movies
  • Ability to Play Games + Android Market
Here’s what Jeff Bezos the CEO of Amazon had to say.
“What we are doing is offering premium products at non-premium prices,” he says. “[Other tablet developers] have not been competitive on price” and “have just sold a piece of hardware. We don’t think of the Kindle Fire as a tablet. We think of it as a service.”
This device is going be a competitor to Sony’s Playstation Vita and knowing Amazon chances are that they are working on good quality games for the Tablet. We can only expect that good things to come for tablet users and at a price tag of $199 the install base will kill the iPad.
