people need to get their fucking head on straight its a $200 tablet its not gonna work better than a $500 tablet! and you can delete stuff from the carousel or the history bar you just hold your finger down on what ever you want to delete and then you press remove from carousal!
I've heard people complain about the power/sleep button being on the bottom of the device. But, if you can view movies, books, browse the web, etc... At 360 degrees, it should really matter because, can't you simply rotate the device so that the power/sleep buttons are on the top and the speakers are on the bottom???
Yes there is an email app, also, the kindle, in my opinion, is much like the iPad. Although it's smaller than the iPad we have all come to know and love very, very dearly, it does all the same things the iPad does. It is also a lot more easy to use than an iPad, and you have a lot more time to use it, because it has a larger battery life. My favorite part, a lot of the games for the kindle that are free have most of the full game. Even better, the kindle is cheaper and easier to but and read on.
At some comments: I am TIRED of tablet comparisons with the iPad. iPad this, iPad killer, iPad that. Look at what you need and forget whether this is an iPad killer or not!
u no wat u need to shut up cause if you hold the content you want to remove down for a few seconds something pops up and says "remove from carousel". try it if you dont believe me....
This focus on the most important functions of a tablet PC has allowed Amazon to offer the Kindle Fire at an incredible price-point of only $199. If you always wanted to get a tablet PC but couldn’t afford something like the iPad 2, this is for you. Below is my review :
KINDLEFIRE-COMPARISON ( DOT ) BLOGSPOT ( DOT ) COM
@bush21rox There is no wi-go connection needed for books, unless you are reading them from the Cloud. If the books are downloaded on to he device, you don't need wi-do. Same with movies.
hey what is the range of wifi on the fire?! i have compared it to the ipad 2 and the playbook and it only has about 1 bar compared to full signal wifi on the ipad or playbook...

Since it is wi-fi only can you still read your books without a connection? Sorry, I'm tech-challenged. I just want to be able to read my books while in a car, airplane, dr. office, or whenever and I wont always have a connection. Is the one with 3G capability a better option?
I said it before, and continued to yell out loud. Amazon Jeff BeZos is the world biggest Asshole, Not only he treats his Employees like human waste, but any affiliates, authors, sellers, buyers are systematically stolen from and cheated.
The Work environment very hostile. Low pay, slaves wages, About the Kindle I said from day one, a piece of Crap design for idiots and clueless Morons. Read More the New York Times Report “As Kindle Fire Faces Critics”, Poorly designed bug infested
this is the best review of the Kindle Fire that I've seen on YouTube so far. (Even better than my modest video reviews.) And I've had the Kindle Fire for a few weeks now, and I really dig it. This video was good, cool, and concise. Really excellent factual points, explanation, and summations, dj... thumbs up...thanks
Not being able to remove content from the carousel is a problem. The Amazon Appstore has been dealing with something similar on smartphones, in that once you have purchased an app (even free ones), you can never remove that app from your list of "My Apps." My Fire arrives via UPS this afternoon....I envision a carousel loaded with 100 ghosts of apps past.
@djramsey i hope you figured out how to remove apps also, if not just hold the app and you should get the options of add to favorites, remove from carousel, and remove from device.
@yoyodyne33 i'm so late but i hope you figured out how to remove apps from the carousel , just hold your finger on the app and you should get the options to add it to your favorites, remove from carousel , and remove frome deivce
@yoyodyne33 - I have recently purchused a Kindle Fire and you can delete apps you have gotten i found. But not the little web page things. To delete certain apps from your carousal you can hold down and it comes up darker with 2 options 1. Add to Favorites 2. Remove from Device. And i found that it did actually remove my app.
@yoyodyne33 u can delete things from the crousel. You hold your finger on the app and it brings up options like remove from carousel or add to favorites u should try it
It looks a little slow to respond to orientation changes (at least compared to iPad standards), opening apps (when you launched the dictionary), and even flipping pages. Have you noticed this to be an annoyance after continued use?
@hillsman7 The cloud device makes the books have to load when you are going to read them and then put them on the Kindle. The kindle has limited storage so they allow unlimited storage on their cloud storage.
Are you able to delete things from the fire now?
