THE ELECTRONIC READER AND TABLET MARKET

The electronic reader and tablet market is all set to welcome the newest member to its family - The Amazon Kindle Fire! Amazon not only conceived but dropped a bombshell with the announcement of the new tablet. The big clincher however is that Amazon dropped the price of the original Kindle, and they also added the new Kindle Touch and, of course, the Kindle Fire.
In stepping up to the game, many will agree it was well worth the wait as consumers have been asking where the Kindle Color is for some time. It came with vibrant color touchscreen and with extra-wide viewing angle. The new tablet is poised to make an impact, through price, hardware, and market. The Kindle Fire will be released on November 15, 2011. Orders are being taken now on a first come, first served basis.
Amazon has now advanced into this market with their all new Amazon Kindle Fire tablet, which has a sleeker design and all of Amazon's content behind it. Consumers will surely judge if it is the first real competitor to go up against the iPad or if it is a completely different product. Other tablets can't really compete with access to 18 million songs, books, apps, movies, TV shows, games and magazines.
The multi-touch display improves Kindle's already user-friendly design by putting full access to the extensive eBook store and limited web browsing capability literally at the user's fingertips. The 7-inch touchscreen multi-effect exhibit with IPS, delivers a maximum resolution of 1024 x 600 at 16 million shades. It's compact size also makes it easier to hold in one hand.
Kindle Fire features a state-of-the-art dual-core processor for fast, powerful performance. Previous models were more of just eBook readers and came in Grey scale. However, it has moved beyond the scope and function of a standard e-reader and is approaching the realm of the iPad and other tablets. With one of its new added features you can now browse the web online. While there is no 3G access on this device it runs on WI-Fi. So anywhere you have a wireless connection, you can browse and download content. There is also free cloud storage for all your Amazon content.
While Amazon's Android-based Kindle Fire electronics wholesale tablet will already tempt customers with its low $199 price versus the $499-$829 of the iPad 2, the online retailer is hoping to ensure that price is not the only point it will beat rivals tablets. Amazon is able to offer such a bargain price because the device is tied into their Eco-system. This means you have direct access to purchase eBooks, music and movies from their expanding catalog. You can even expect streaming movies and TV programs.
With the Christmas holiday season coming up, it makes a great gift for both young and old.

THE SUCCESS OF KINDLE E-BOOK READER

Following the success of Kindle e-book reader, Amazon is planned to release its latest electronic device, the Kindle Fire. Quite different from the older versions of Amazon Kindle, this Fire Tablet from Amazon is not only an e-book reader; it is also a tablet computer. The release of this latest tablet computer was announced on September 28, 2011.
The Fire tablet will be the first Amazon Kindle model that does not use Amazon's signature screen display the E Ink Pearl. However, the tablet will use a color 7 inch IPS gorilla glass display. The Fire display resolution is 1,024 x 600 at 169 ppi with 16 million colors. This multi-touch screen also uses the technology of capacitive touch sensitive.
The measurement of this Amazon's Fire tablet will resemble the Kindle Keyboard e-book reader. While Kindle Keyboard measures 7.5 x 4.8 x 0.34 inch, Kindle Fire will measure 7.5 x 4.7 x 0.45 inch. Speaking of weight, the Fire model will be less heavy than the Kindle DX. Fire will only weigh 14.6 ounce.
Using this product, you will acquire a unique browsing experience thanks to the Amazon cloud-accelerated browser. This browser has revolutionary technology which brings you to a faster Internet browsing. Traditionally, to access a page, a website browser will gather 80 files from 13 different domains. This is a heavy work and takes time. Meanwhile, Amazon Silk does not work that way. Amazon Web Services cloud will stack and push the pieces of information gathered to have better, quicker Internet access. This Amazon Silk's latest technology is called the "split browser" architecture.
Upgraded from the old generation of other Kindle models, the Fire model is more improved in terms of internal memory. While other Kindle e-book readers only have 4 GB of memory or holding 3,500 e-books at the most, Kindle Fire will have 8 GB of memory; enough for saving various media contents. 8 GB equals 6,000 e-books, 800 songs, 80 apps, or 10 movies.
The 7 inch color Kindle Fire will be operated by Google's Android 2.3 Gingerbread. It uses the 1 GHz Texas Instruments OMAP 4 dual core processor and 512 MB of RAM. Additionally, it also has type B Micro USB 2.0 port and 3.5 mm stereo jack. To connect to the Internet, the Kindle Fire makes use of the 802.11n Wi-Fi connectivity.
The Amazon Kindle Fire is scheduled to be released on November 15, 2011. To be one of the first people to ever acquire this amazing Amazon product, you can place an early order on Amazon. Kindle Fire will sell US$199 for pre-order.
