Sounds like a good idea. Stay a year behind and compete on price and content. I can see them selling tons and being second in units sold to the ipad easily. And like apple they have the potential to make a killing selling content

8.9" is the size I want...I'll just give the 7" to the kids. After redacting my credit card info, of course...

The thing is.. the IPAD sales include all IOS devices not just the ipad and ipad 2. I believe that the kindle fire will out sale the Ipad because it provides the same experience at a much lower cost.

I thought the next one would be codenamed "Ice".

so basically:
2nd Quarter 2012- 8.9 inch, dual core Tegra 2 SoC, "Coyote"
Late 2012- 10.1 inch, quad core Tegra 3 SoC, "Hollywood"

hoping Hollywood would be around $275.
and maybe Coyote would be $235.

Come on Amazon, keep them prices low!!!

The only problem I have with my Galaxy S2 the Android OS is that it doesn't have as games (and apps) as they do have on the iOS. I mean not everyone plays games, but I do want to play a nice FFIII port to the Android sometimes.

Ok, so it's not perfect but the Kindle Fire is still an amazing deal for $200. At kindlefireforums.com there's a ton of great reviews and articles about the best apps as well as discussion with other new Kindle Fire owners.

The thing I like about Amazon is that it not only sells it's own stuff, but sells everyone elses too, it's just a big one-stop-shop.

Best of all I get 5% off anything they sells via our corporate discount program, it's not a lot but it can be used in conjunction other offers so when the sales come along I clean up.
