I have one, during setup it asks you to log into your account to 'complete the setup. i couldnt at the time, and some apps worked, and others absolutely required the login, but it was half-usable without it. When you log in it 'feels' like a cloud-powered, personalized device and I imagine if you had a second device and were to log in it would probsbly bring much of your info over. im curious to see what they do with tying the Amazon account to a device in the future. I was also a little worried as a non-US resident that it might be locked into amazon.COM accounts when I use a different locale, but everyting seems to smoothly work. Its no ipad, but I can buy ten of them for a price of an ipad. As a longtime ipad owner I finally feel like theres competition, and the price point is unbeatable. IF you gave me $50 to spend on a tablet, Id get the fire. if you gave me $200, Id get four fires. If you gave me 500 Id buy an ipad, and if you gave me $550 Id buy an ipad and a fire. You cant go wrong at that price point, but for what its worth when its in the hand it feels like a device I would have expected to pay $150-$250 from anybody else.
