  • Check out that price tag, Support for Adobe Flash Player, Solid web browser for basic web browsing, The wealth of Amazon content at your fingertips, Video streaming and book-borrowing for free with Prime membership, Great deals on apps in Amazon app store
  • No Camera, No Bluetooth, No HDMI, No SD card slot or expandable storage, Poor placement of power button and headphone jack, No free (or paid) 3G option as seen on some e-ink Kindles, Limited app selection compared to full Android market
  • If you're trying to decide between an iPad and the Kindle Fire, you've got several things to consider. The iPad peforms better, with better features. Of course, the iPad is significantly larger -- certainly too big to carry in your pocket. The iPad a...

  • There is a natural tendency to compare all tablets to the popular, ground-breaking iPad, but the Amazon Kindle Fire really can’t be compared to the iPad. It is an entirely different, less expensive category of tablet. At less than one half of the price...

  • Amazon Prime members get additional perk of 100,000+ free movies and TV shows plus Kindle Owners’ Lending Library for $79/year. More user-friendly than any other Android-based device on the market. Perfect for frequent Amazon shoppers, who are treated to a new free app each day.
  • Screen is too small for comfortably reading magazine content without zooming. Limited app selection, especially for Google lovers. Some popular apps blocked from installation at launch (Plex, Zinio, doubleTwist). Facebook “app” just a shortcut to mobile website.
  • While the iPad continues to offer the slickest tablet experience overall, we actually prefer the Kindle Fire for reading books, and the 7-inch form factor is a nice middle ground between smartphones and a 10-inch tablet. You’ll have to pry the iPad 2...

  • Abstract:  With the holiday season in full force, a lot of gift-givers are going to be considering one of the new color e-readers that have been introduced recently: Amazon's Kindle Fire, the Kobo Vox and Barnes & Noble's Nook Tablet. Many people are still unsure...

  • Abstract:  As it is, the Fire will make a somewhat cozy companion for reading newspapers and magazines in bed, or in a dimly lit living room -- anywhere there is low light, as the Fire's screen catches glare and reflections very easily. You can also enjoy movies on your nightstand, say, if you can find...

  • Abstract:  Amazon recently jumped into the tablet game with a vengeance. With decent specs, their name, and a price tag of $199, there's no question they are going to sell a lot of these. The question is if you should jump in on the craze? Here is my full review, bu...

  • Great screen, solid performance on all fronts, excellent integration into Amazon ecosystem, good value for the price
  • Lack of Bluetooth, external buttons and other standard tablet functions;
  • Dan posed the following question: I hear about people finding more and more uses for their iPad as it becomes increasingly integrated into their lives. I’m quite curious to see if that is the case with the Kindle fire or not. My immediate gut tells me...

  • At $199, it's less than half the price of an iPad, Brilliant IPS display, Easy to navigate with a polished interface, Suitable for one-handed use, Solid build quality
  • No 3G, microSD card slot, HDMI output, or cameras, Doesn't let you install apps from Google's Android Market, Web browsing is choppy, No volume rocker
  • Navigating the UI is a different experience. For the most part, jumping around the menus and scrolling tiles are both smooth and fast. Perhaps not quite as smooth as the iPad, but still impressive actually. I didn't experience any issues with streaming pl...
