Kindle Fire - Full Color Kindle with 7" Multi-Touch Display, Wi-Fi
Amazon unveils the Kindle Fire (a 7” multi-touch colour tablet) for US$199, the Kindle Touch (a 6” touch screen E Ink Kindle) for US$99, and introduces a low priced, ad-supported E Ink Kindle for just US$79.
The the bargain basement Kindle will become a staple for users dipping their toe into the eReader market, while the Kindle Touch will be a nice upgrade for current Kindle owners. Finally, the Kindle Fire introduces a totally new product category, one that is cheaper than the iPad and current stock of Android tablets but ostensibly does just as much.
Personally I won’t be getting the Kindle Fire for reading purposes. My current Kindle 3 works just fine and the only reason I would upgrade is to get faster page refreshes. After all it’s just words on a page, you don’t need any fancy graphics for that!
