I'm impressed with all of these. Amazon now has tablet pricing that smoothly ranges from $69 -> $499, an outstanding value on 4G service, a quality e-mail client story that includes ActiveSync, necessary touches like parental controls, a substantial app library, all of the one-click content you can handle, growing mindshare that isn't contaminated with the stink of 'Android', and genuine technical superiority over the market monolith in a few areas.
This is going to be an extremely popular lineup.
- Achshar 14y agoI am not sure if Kindle can be considered a "tablet". There is no media consumption possible on it except for text.
- loganfrederick 14y agoThe Kindle Fire and its descendants are tablets with web browsing, app stores, games, etc based off of Android.
- abhimishra 14y agoYes, but $69 is for a regular e-ink Kindle. The tablets don't start until $159.
- MartinCron 14y agoDistinct accounts, parental controls and child-friendly features seem like an excellent (overdue) addition to tablet computing. I can limit how much time they play games and give them unlimited time to read books? I can watch degenerate garbage at night and not have that show up in their "continue watching" the next morning. That's pretty damn cool. I hope that this pressures other providers (hello Netflix!) to start offering services like this.
