Kudos to Apple in making education affordable, but IPad prices should drop before it affordability of textbooks reach all classes of society.

Comment on Kindle Fire 2: rumors, name change by Nancy

I sent my Kindle Fire back to Amazon after about 2 weeks of ownership in the fall. My problem is with the on/off switch, which is a button, instead of a slide as in the Kindles. This is a problem for left-handers, who hold it in the right hand and work it with the left hand. The location of the button is such that it turns off unexpectedly. Annoying, to say the least. I’ve told Amazon I’m waiting for Fire 2. Hoping it will have a better on/off. I’d also like 3G.

At this point I don’t see a reason not to wait. I like the Fire, it is a good device, but like all first generation devices it has its issues. I try not to buy the first gen of anything. If for no other reason, waiting gives the end user the chance to compare products.

Btw, I LOVE my Kindle Fire. With or without 3G (which I couldn’t afford on top of my phone plan and my internet plan, anyway), it’s an amazing little piece of hardware, particularly for the money. I’ve been happy with it every step of the way. Easily the best Christmas present I’ve ever gotten.

I’m actually thinking they’ll go a different direction with the naming. Kindle is already a fire related word, so the Kindle Fire is a natural step for that. I’m expecting the next one to continue the fire theme. Perhaps the Kindle Blaze or the Kindle Inferno. At least, that’s my take.

Better yet, DON’T go to Best Buy. They have a bad reputation for cheating their customers.

Sorry for the typos (on the train). I meant to say extra $80 in revenue.

My wife owns one of these. She loves it. I wish it had a front camera and mic.

The biz models is terrific: they bundle the hardware with a 1 month trial of the Prime membership, which many people will find useful (like we did) and renew. There go $ip extra revenue. Plus all the media people buy from the via the kindle.

Brilliat move. I am sure they can subsidize a 9 inch ipad killer for ~ 350 USD
