Mobile Technology: Kindle Fire HD
Who would had ever imagined that we would be able to hold something in our hands that is like a book but without the weight or dog eared pages? In mobile technology today we have the access to the Kindle Fire. Ranging from $199 for 16 gig model and $249 for a 32 gig model. Seems kinda expensive but wouldn't that beat carrying around dozens of books in a book bag? With the Kindle Fire, it is a affordable one-stop device for reading Amazon books, magazines, streaming video, and playing music. Amazon provides support at their various stores and have more than enough content to keep customers entertained for the next 20 years. The display is very sharp and clear and has excellent viewing angles. The speakers are pretty incredible for just a 7 inch screen, followed by a battery life that will last.
The only thing to remember is the Kindle Fire is not an Ipad so if reading books, magazines, streaming videos, and playing music is what you tend to do then the Kindle is for me what about you?

It will be interesting to see how the iPhone5 competes with these tablets. Many smart phones have the "reader" like capabilities that will steal market share from tablet oriented companies.
ReplyDeleteDude, Colin has a really great point here. He's super smart. While it's nice to have all your books on one reader, we are starting to get too many different electronic gadgets- a reader, a GPS, an iPod, a phone, etc. I think the iPhone is catching on- let's put all these devices together into one simple, hand-help phone. Cool. I like this better.
DeleteThe Kindle fire is not for me because I am not one of those people that really loves to read books. The one reason that i would buy a kindle is if I would read a book while on the road but me personally, i would rather watch a movie or look for that days news.
ReplyDeleteThe Kindle Fire is not something I would prefer. Looking at a screen for too long causes me to have a headache so because of that I would prefer not to have it.
