The new Amazon Kindle Tablet is without doubt the most amazing device we have ever seen. The Kindle tablet price, at $199 is simply impossible to believe, less than half the cost of the iPad 2!
The new Amazon Tablet is officially called the Kindle Fire. 7 inch, amazing color screen and so tough you would need an elephant to damage it and we are not even sure that would work!
You can choose from basically an endless number of free and paid apps and you get a free paid one every day.
If you haven’t heard of Amazon Prime then you will once you buy the Kindle Fire. You get it free for a month and it gives free shipping on orders but that is just the beginning.
You get to have instant streaming of videos, a choice of over 10,000. Plus you can buy or rent over 100,000 titles. All our favorite games are there.
Plus we can read magazine subscriptions in full color as they are intended to be read. And of course we can read books from our favorite authors too.
17 million songs are available from the MP3 store. You can either download them to the Kindle or stream live.
Basically we have a fully featured tablet made from the ground up by Amazon at a price so low it is impossible to resist. This is an amazing device that fulfills all your multimedia needs at a crazy discounted deal that is going to make it the bestselling tablet ever.
Below were our musings long before any of the new releases were announced:
It seems that the rumors never end when it comes to the new Amazon Kindle tablet. Although we did believe it was to be released by August it now seems that October is the expected release date for the Kindle tablet.
Let’s hope so anyway.
Online rumors have also been suggesting that Amazon may be introducing new names for the Kindle. One site let us know that kindlewave.com and kindlescribe.com were picked up by Amazon after the registrations expired. This may just be a diversionary tactic by Amazon but it may also be that the names may factor in the upcoming Kindle and tablet release that are now expected very soon, as long as the current rumors are true.
Amazon Kindle
As with the Kindle reader, the Kindle 4, and the Amazon tablet we will simply have to wait until a definite date is given by Amazon, but hopefully it really will not be long now.
What we can expect from the new Kindle tablet is hard to know really. This is because there are going to be a number of release and the new Kindle may or may not be a tablet in the strictest sense. It may just be an update reader or it may be the name of a new Amazon tablet that will be sold in conjunction with the regular Kindle e-book reader.
At least there is now not long left to wait until we actually get to see what really will be released this year.
Kindle Tablet
UPDATE: In the last few days there have been a number of leaks about the new Kindle tablet. Techcrunch managed to get their hands on a prototype of the first release and it is set to simply be called the Amazon Kindle. Here are a few key features:
- Touch screen
- Full color
- Free Amazon Prime, which means free 2 day shipping and free instant streaming of video
- 7 inch display
- Price around $250
The free video streaming is going to be a major reason why people buy and although it does seem odd that the name will just be the Amazon Kindle we should find that as soon as it is available it will sell in huge numbers.
The only shame is that once again the release is changing and it now seems as if November is going to be the earliest release date.
