Tablet Talk: Unboxing the Amazon Kindle Fire Tablet

As you know, I like to be up on new gadgets and whatnot. When I first heard about the Kindle Fire, I didn’t know if it was a good purchase or not, since I was equating it with the Amazon Kindle reader. After a little bit of research and talking to friends who had one, I figured it would be a good buy. I was looking for a birthday gift for my better half and since he didn’t have a tablet and is always traveling, thought this would be a fab gift.

The Amazon Kindle Fire tablet is a 7 inch tablet with color graphics. It’s a lot smaller than my Xoom (the Xoom is 10.5 inch), and very lightweight. Almost too light! It works as most tablets do—you can surf the web, download music, books, check mail, etc. It doesn’t have a camera for pictures of video—but still, for surfing and playing games on the go, it’s a great tablet.

For someone who isn’t ready for an iPad, Xoom, or Samsung Galaxy tablet, then this is the next best thing. Only $199.00.

Here are a few photos of the unboxing of the Amazon Kindle Fire tablet. I will be bringing you more information as it relates to the usability of the tablet, speed, and wifi connection.
