Amazon Kindle Fire interface
The new Kindle tablet will run a special Amazon version of Google's Android OS -- but it's not Honeycomb 3.0 it's based upon, but an early version of Android 2.x. There's multitasking as you'd expect from Android.
The UI eschews Android Market in favour of an Amazon-centered experience around Amazon Cloud Player and Cloud Drive.
The top of the display shows your name, while there's a search bar and buttons for newsstand, music videos books, documents, apps and web browser. Below the nav there's a "shelf" for your "most read" videos, books and magazines -- it's all in a Cover Flow-style interface.
You'll be able to browse full colour magazines on the device.
Amazon Kindle Fire apps
The browser is called Amazon Silk -- it uses Amazon's EC2 computer cluster. Presumably this means Amazon will employ huge processing power (compression) to reduce bandwidth demand on the device and put more processing in the cloud. A bit like Opera's compression tech.
Incredibly, Silk learns your browsing patterns and pre-loads the pages you read the most.
There is a tablet-optimised shopping app on board -- this is said to comprise simplified and streamlined pages, so it is easier to buy stuff on than the actual Amazon website.
There will be a number of apps accessible on the device, including Pandora (US), Twitter, Facebook, and Netflix (US).
