i ain't tryna walk around w/ a 10 inch tablet, them 7" is perfect size. I'm just surprised nobody is talking about it when its getting nearly as much praise as the nexus 7 and the full size is getting deeply compared to the ipad 3.

like dude said, its Great for reading and watching movies/TV. looks beautiful on that thing. and the sound is better then most beats laptops. no lie. they spaced the speakers properly where you can get a legit stereo sound going. but with that said, if you're not an amazon prime user. and you want to use a ton of aps, watch youtube, watch/listen to things that use flash. dont buy the kindle fire hd. go get the galaxy 2, 7 inch.

its smaller in size(not in viewable space) so it fits in your hand. it has a great screen, it only comes with 8 gb for 249. but it has a SD card slot unlike either the kindle or the nexus 7. so you can boost that memory up til whatever you like. the one reason for getting a nexus is if you just need that newest latest android operating system.

Amazon’s strategy with its Kindle e-readers and tablets has always been pretty clear: bring in more customers, even at a loss, so long as they partake of the online retailer’s panoply of services, from e-books to streaming movies. Unlike rival Apple, which sells its devices at a premium, Amazon has seemed more or less happy to break even or lose money on its devices. Now, a report based on research by Consumer Intelligent Research Partners (CIRP) shows how shrewd that strategy may be.

CIRP surveyed 300 U.S.-based Amazon customers over a period of three months this fall. Based on the results, the firm estimates that Kindle owners spend about $1,233 per year on the site, compared with $790 for Amazon members who do not own one. In other words, Amazon members with Kindles spend $443 more annually.

That's basically Google's strategy with Android & Chrome OS. If you own an Android device or Chromebook, you're probably all-in on Google 1st-party apps, services & products.

Yep, if you're getting a Kindle or Nook tablet, make sure you get 1 that is supported by CyanogenMod.
