The Kindle TV could reach the market in March - All eReaders

media playing and Smart TVs are a large market expectations towards the year 2014 and future years, for large companies in the world of technology and some like their Chromecast Google or Apple Apple TV have been launched to try to conquer this market but surely in the near future we will see how other large companies are venturing in search of interesting benefits.

One of these companies is that as Amazon has leaked in the past few hours and is preparing a new web TV device based on Android operating system with which to offer its users an interesting option in this field.

This rumor is not new as it has already talked in this website Kindle Christmas TV past, this is how many have dubbed the new Amazon device that would have seemed an imminent launch along with smartphone the great online store but none of the devices finally saw the light.

Now the rumor seems to have greater strength and is already talk that the firm directs Jeff Bezos could put this device on the market next March but it would be nice to quarantine this date because in recent times we have heard hundreds of possible dates for possible devices that Amazon finally have not met any.

In a personal opinion the Kindle TV more sooner or later be a reality as there is much evidence to confirm this such as the presence of Android OS on the Kindle Fire or resource that can be interesting for Amazon to offer paid content through this device which make profits, but March is just around the corner and not have seen a minimum filtration specifications or picture which is rather strange if the device is truly a few days to see the light on the market.

How about the possibility of Amazon entering the market the device named Kindle Tv .

Amazon Kindle could have prepared a TV for March - The Free Android

During an event in San Francisco last July 2013, Google launched Chromecast, your particular device for home media streaming. Apple, meanwhile, has the Apple TV. But there are also other products like Roku, also available in the market, ready to compete with this niche market that is playback multimedia contents and Smart TVs .

Therefore, it appears imminent that anytime can produce a revolutionary movement by one of the big companies to shoot this sector. And 2014 could be the year.

Recode has been leaked that Amazon is also prepared to join this sector and make competition with a new web TV device based on Android.

According to Peter Kafka

(Editor Recode), the deployment of this new box would scheduled for March , having previously spoken of a possible launch in the last Christmas campaign, which did not occur.

In fact, since foresee to leverage their Instant Video service , available for Prime members , in order to give more meaning to the fact the development of this case.

Previous reports

would point to the Amazon streaming experience would based on a fork Android , possibly baptized under the name Kindle TV . All these rumors certainly make sense, since Amazon already has Android in the Kindle Fire, so they appear to tune into the way of working of the company.

The big question is: this product really is as advanced as to go on sale in March ? That’s something we do not know and we will continue to wait for all the rumors and leaks that may arise, as well as any official confirmation. Meanwhile, only hope.

Will this time the rumor true?

Kindle Fire 7 inch HDX, a gem for the media and ... - Home PC

thoroughly analyze one of the recent tablets launched by Amazon, the Kindle Fire 7 inch HDX. Its price makes us not believe the features that account, even more amazing in practice that the technical specifications sheet.

Amazon

as few companies dominate the internet world and the contents. And how could it be otherwise, had to be one that was going to go for the tablets, because today is the quintessential device for consuming multimedia content. Already in 2012 they released the first tablet, the Kindle Fire, which had some shortcomings, but it was perfectly integrated into the landscape of the company Jeff Bezos. This new Kindle Fire HDX solves many of the problems above, but retains the essence of Amazon. Perfect for those who want to play games and read books choice.

Design

note more than enough that Amazon has taken great care designing your Kindle Fire HDX. Is famous for its back cover, where all elements of the tablet reside, except the screen itself, which remains as the only component with the camera, the front of the tablet completely smooth. In the later section we found a plastic housing with rubber, which makes the tablet very easy to use, minimizing the possible sliding falls.

rear section also we have a bevel on the side, which again facilitates gripping, though not its only function, it also accommodates all buttons are there in this tablet, both of volume and power, making them fairly easy to use, and are always on hand when we are using the tablet in landscape mode.

Finally, the upper section of the back cover is finished in plastic, but polished, so shining, and just bevel. Here the stereo speakers are housed. It is possible that the situation of these on the front would have been more appropriate, but the truth is that it is not a bad option.

else, we have a Kindle Fire 7-inch HDX appears to have a really robust construction, and it is also very light, to have a magnesium structure that reduces its weight up to 303 grams.

situation connectors on the sides of the tablet, somewhat narrow indeed. However, we liked microUSB connector to be slightly angled, which makes it look quite sturdy. The same goes for the headphone jack, which is located on the right side. The best thing is, even when the sides are in the upper zone, which allows us to use the tablet to play perfectly even though we are charging the battery and listening through headphones.

Power and Performance

Regarding the operation of the tablet, we can give an A, because it has a quad-core processor, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800, which is still the best available on the market, capable of reaching a frequency of Your clock 2.2 GHz 2 GB RAM also will make the operation of the tablet is completely fluid, and reduce the maximum possible slowdowns and crashes Kindle Fire HDX.

is available in three memory options, 16GB 32 GB and 64 GB. The memory can not be expanded, so it will be essential to choose the version that best suit us to use the tablet without we meet later with memory problems.

We especially liked your battery, which is capable of supporting up to 17 hours if we use it to read books. Not that I have much autonomy as a Kindle Paperwhite, but we will not have problems. Moreover, if we make normal use, watching movies and listening to music, or surfing the Internet, we can reach a range of 11 hours, which is not bad.

Display and graphics quality

But of course, one of the highlights of this Kindle Fire 7-inch HDX is its graphic quality. The tablet has a seven-inch screen with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,200 pixels, which leaves a pixel density of 323 PPI, with a brightness of 400 nits. However, not only stands for its technical data, but for its overall performance. Each of the tablets receives a calibration screen before leaving the factory, individually, which makes is optimized. The sharpness of the screen as well as the realism of the colors make it one of the best tablets for media consumption.

way, and although it has nothing to do with the graphics, the audio quality is truly remarkable, with speakers that perform well and do not distort too. Is at the level of the screen, so it makes it a very balanced tablet in regards to the multimedia world.

Fire OS 3.0

Your OS is based on Android, but it is a customized version by Amazon, called Fire OS 3.0, where the marquee that is always present on screen predominates, and allows us to see the installed applications or different books or movies have in the memory of the tablet.

become a full version that includes advertising, something that lowers the price of the tablet, you will meet the same when you ignite the screen and do not be using the Kindle Fire. It is very annoying, but when the time might have considered spending a little more to avoid the publicity.

Essentially Fire OS 3.0 is not too different from Android, with a top notification bar that gives us access to certain adjustments, and similar controls to get to the start menu or option. Yes it is true that it is much simpler. Not so complicated interface as in Android, it gives us so many options, and that is welcome if you want to use the tablet for browsing, watching movies and listening to music, or playing games.

its limitations, though, is that we have access to Google Play, so all we need to download applications from the Amazon store. There are other ways to install external applications, but the truth is that the Amazon App Store has enough applications.

Finally, do not forget we want to emphasize that some of the key services of Amazon in the U.S. are not available in Spain. This is what happens with the video service, for example. We can not buy our movies to Kindle Fire HDX, leaving us with few options. Chances are that most users end for downloading movies illegally. It’s funny, because that service Amazon movies unavailable in Spain due to the difficulty to negotiate with distributors of our country, who see the risk of losing sales. Thus, all that is achieved is that users get used to illegally download them to carry on your tablet. There will be problems with books, music, or video games, which it does have a good catalog.

HDX Kindle Fire 7 ": display and power - Macsoluciones

Details

Category: Analysis

Published Friday, January 24, 2014 8:39

by Simona Rodriguez

‘ve always had a soft spot for the Amazon Kindle products. Perhaps, after all, because they were the first to provide a tablet aimed at avid readers. Now, the Kindle Fire HDX comes in a tablet with Android flavor a really powerful combination of power and performance.

The last of the tablet added to my private collection was Kindle Fire HD 7 “, a mix of revamped Android now what has been dubbed Amazon Kindle OS ( Mojito version 3.0 , variant Android 4.2.2 ), which adds to the specific capabilities of the usual reading we find in any other tablet: running games applications, network access … In short, the taste of Amazon puts in the hands of users and applications alike literature accessible to a tap from your store, as Apple does with its ecosystem.

But now that I have the HDX Kindle Fire 7 “ in my hands is when I regret (to some extent) have bought the previous generation product. (Who does not like have the best?)

is that while early on I strove to minimize the advantages that could make the new HDX version compared to the Kindle Fire HD, as would any good defender of rational choice made at the time, finally I have not been forced to kneel on the floor. I must admit that for a few months apart, would not return to Kindle Fire HD after saying goodbye to HDX as one becomes a daily reality after enjoying the holiday of a lifetime.

things first, to explain. Let’s start with the design.

So far the Kindle

latest smart (and I’ll call the tablet and no more read-oriented, such as the Kindle or Kindle Paperwhite ), had a rounded shape in the contours was elegant and pleasant to the touch, something that fit my taste better than the new path taken in the Kindle Fire HDX. Others, however, find the new design a more elegant compared to the previous model labeled “little stylish” execution.

I must admit that initially the appearance of truncated pyramid on the back of the HDX Kindle Fire 7 “left me somewhat perplexed, and I looked up to an older design compared. After several weeks of using the natural meeting plus it seems a success that the small speakers to be passed in the upper band thus no longer have to think if will be covered when holding the tablet with your hands. while the maximum volume is enough to hear readily the dialogues during video playback (without distortion!)

But as for the new design I see that Amazon is more successful we finally prevents torture to locate and identify the buttons. With the latest Kindle Fire have always had to make one complete turn the device to locate the power button, and more often than desired’m done pressing the volume buttons instead of ignition.

Now, finally, the buttons are slightly split on the product case and separate in function. So, if we take the Kindle Fire horizontally HDX, our fingers will have no problem identifying the two volume adjustment buttons on the right side would be the back side while the power button would be at the same height but on the left. This is so natural that when using the device in landscape mode (probably with games and video playback), it is not whether we are using the product vertically.

Beyond these details, which has undergone a dramatic improvement is the reduction of both weight and thickness compared to the previous generation. In fact, it is almost half the finest, and while the features indicate that the Kindle Fire HDX weighs just 45 grams less , the perception in everyday is to use a lighter device, and you notice when it comes to keeping for long periods and not in sporadic use.

The first improvement is none other than the screen itself. After all, this is one of the main parts in this device class.

In this case the panel with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,200 points , and a definition of 323 dpi , is capable of displaying the full range of colors in the collection sRGB color model . That is, the version really “HD” Kindle Fire HD, and having a better definition.

panel quality is amazing and allowed especially noticeable in movie playback and 3D games, where the power of the tablet also helps his. However, when it comes to simple text on white background I noticed that the panel tends to show a shaded area along the entire contour of the screen , which is quite annoying when reading . Furthermore, while the backlight level is pretty good, sometimes I had no choice but to use the manual setting, especially when using the Kindle Fire in a HDX completely dark room.

what interests is performance then the HDX Kindle Fire is one of the best options you can find on the range of 7. “Front dual core processor at 1.5 GHz used in the previous generation product, in this case Amazon has used a quad-core processor at 2.2 GHz able to provide significantly better performance.

Specifically, the HDX Kindle Fire 7 “uses a Snapdragon chipset 800 , with a Krait CPU 400 quad core (Qualcomm ARMv7) and a GPU Adreno 330 , while the available memory on the device for applications reaches 2 GB (actually 1.7 GB free)

.

What I have noticed during the performance tests is that the device gets very hot, much less compared to the Kindle when demanding HD games are used for a reasonable amount of time. In most other applications very good use of all that power will not likely do. In this direction there are also significant improvements in terms of graphics performance, quality effects and textures.

On the results, the graph obtained by performance 3DMark , this device would be above even the Air and iPad Mini iPad Retina 7.9 “Apple by 9% and 14% respectively. Regarding performance differences alone processor, the differences are more bulky, rising to 39% in comparison with the iPad Air, and 49% if it is compared with the mini iPad Retina.

Other

improved product areas are wireless and battery. In the first case, now uses MIMO technology (inputs and multiple outputs), allowing connection to access points Wi-Fi 802.11n dual-band, for example. In short, more speed for downloading apps and videos or music, especially. Then, quite an achievement considering that the processor used and the wireless technology, the Kindle Fire HDX capable of reaching 11 hours of combined use .

Personally, I have found this product one of the most enduring my pace before having to go back through the plug to recharge your battery: games, lots of reading, the occasional video, and Wi-Fi quite navigation ( addition to downloading books purchased in the Kindle Store).

Now look at my Kindle Fire HD and would submit it to a weight loss therapy, although it would not get the same benefits that the Kindle Fire does offer HDX. Moreover, in the current version of the Kindle Fire HD keep in mind that it has removed the front camera, plus it does not have exactly the same characteristics as compared to the original Kindle Fire HD.

Pricewise

Kindle Fire HDX can find from 229 USD with a storage capacity of 16 GB, which is quite reasonably priced. And if you think something fair amount of storage, remember that you can always use a device like the Sandisk Wireless Connection , or opt for the configurations with 32 or 64 GB of storage. As in previous products, any of these options are available as “sponsored” option (basically receive non-intrusive advertising and not pouring), and you were personally I chose when I bought my Kindle Fire HD (and would do in the case of Fire HDX without hesitation).

It

Taking the above into account, is it a recommended purchase? Without hesitation, provided you have in mind that, although can connect it to your Mac to share files, its integration with Apple computers ends there. Think of the Kindle Fire HDX as a product in its own ecosystem, Amazon. And if you’re the type of user who goes to buy his books and apps (Android with tweaks) to the online store Amazon, then this tablet is an excellent choice considering its price / performance ratio.

With the arrival of Amazon to Colombia what is the future of libraries? - Semana.com

How much affects the growth of digital culture industry of printed books

A serious publisher has clearly should focus on content production, not in print production.

editor’s role is to connect with readers content regardless of format, whether it is on paper or digital.

Al royal editor does not care how you sell your content because just wins. The savings in sending print books, is a saving moves to price paid by the final consumer, benefiting readers and does not affect the income of publishers, on the contrary, stimulates.

And what determines that digital books masifiquen

That will

according to how the market evolves. Today it is easier for readers to buy printed books because they are not yet established in Colombia major platforms like Amazon that actually stimulate the sale of digital books and even now is taking off publishing content in Spanish as most is in English.

Today, Editorial Norma and Bookstore U National Library sell books and digital texts Colombians but penetration is still low.

What is already common is that publishers register their books with the ISBN for print and digital but still focus more on selling printed.

When Amazon then reaches Colombia

be established this year as we have been told. The importance of Amazon is that they not only stimulate book sales but selling your digital reader, the Kindle makes reading easier.

Today class=”c14″>

Amazon is already in Mexico, Spain and Brazil and is known to still plans Colombia.

What other store can move this market?

Libranda which is a platform that brings together the leading publishers in the world Spanish. Next week (April 2013) come to Bogotá to negotiate with Colombian publishers for local books available on this platform worldwide.

Not a vicious circle that publishers focus on paper because there is less market for digital books and that lack of promotion no more digital reading devices

not vicious just because the digital issue is occurring and you have to wait for users to buy more devices that allow digital reading.

Children and young people are those who are already reading from digital and as they grow and become more massive digital book readers.

Why is it more important for digital reading devices (e-readers) that tablets

masifiquenIn a

iPad can read well but the screens remain bright and strain the eyes while a digital reader like Amazon Kindle, the letter is a simile of the paper and the same screen. Is designed specifically for reading.

Why is it so important to the arrival of Amazon?

In 2011, the market for books in Colombia moved 550,000 million and it is estimated that only 3 percent are digital books. United States is a leader in this segment and today 30 percent of the books sold are digital.

Amazon class=”c14″>

When you arrive and start selling Amazon Kindle, a massive competition becoming more and more digital book reader devices of different brands, prices and sizes.

EVOLUTION

What is the future of libraries?

Physical Bookseller

is transforming the print on demand model. If a client does not find a title you are looking for, we will send home printed within 3 days. The library acquires distribution rights of the titles, make high quality digital prints on demand, per customer’s request and sent home.

is a model in which local bind books and even digital printers who produce digital content to offer them printed.

Another embodiment

existing libraries is that card instead sold the book to the customer scrape for a code that allows you to download the eBook to your computer.

even come a day when people go to bookstores to your iPad for there to download the books you want to buy if you do not want to lose online.

This system already exists in Colombia

already being viewed. The Bookstore U has the representation of “Publidisa” a Spanish company that handles such alliances.

Colombian bookstores sell their own digital reading devices

probably going to happen. In the United States the largest bookstore “Barnes & Noble” has its own digital reader called “Nook” and compete directly with the Kindle and the Amazon store.

Just as today

chain stores sell own food brands, bookstores can send produce to China economic digital readers and put u own brand, for example.

Why are not as popular these readers in Colombia

Basically, for tax issues, may be more expensive than a computer or tablet. While basic computers and tablets are exempt from VAT, a digital reader must pay 10 percent import tariff plus 16 percent VAT.

How are you getting the iPad in Colombia for sale of books

platform is the most popular but there are still a few titles available. It is very possible that with books through music as the most important player is using Apple iTunes.

all depends on the contagion factor that generates the mass arrival of the Kindle with Amazon.

That does not jeopardize the continued publishing

No. The only difference is who negotiate. If today negotiate with libraries to distribute their books, they now do with Apple and Amazon.

The taxes and turnover are maintained, only thing is that the physical book is dematerialized.

option to directly publish books online, publishers worry?

This is a very good choice for writers who are not supported by an editor. The good thing is that sometimes the books are so good that publishers immediately contact these authors to represent and market their next works.

There are several cases like these or digital books by unknown authors that a publisher buys the rights to sell paper.

The novel “50 Shades of Grey” is the best example of a book that autoeditó online editor and then commercialized.

The arrival of Amazon will also be positive for Colombian authors found no publisher can sell their obrasen this platform.

Losers with this new technology then, are the printers?

Yes, but smart printers are other business opportunities that go beyond the books. A clear example is that Carvajal has focused on commercial printing.

Inc. Amazon began selling its Kindle ebook reader in Brazil on Friday, entering on tiptoe in the retail business more challenging but more e-commerce market in Latin America.

ereaders to send across this country of continental dimensions, Amazon will experience firsthand the logistical problems of Brazil, seen as an obstacle to an extensive retail operation as it has in the United States.

planet’s biggest online store launched an Internet bookstore in Brazil in December 2012, a less risky way to land in the emerging e-commerce market of 11,000 million dollars annually. So far, the Kindle was only sold in bookstores, appliance stores and kiosks in malls.

“From north to south, from east to west, now we will be delivering products in Brazil,” said Alex Szapiro, a former Apple executive hired to command the landing of Amazon in Brazil.

“We learn from everything I do,” he said in an interview with Reuters on Thursday. “We learn about digital books, learn about Brazilian consumers and from tomorrow we will learn how to move products from point A to point B”.

Asked if selling Kindle was a rehearsal for a larger retail operation, Szapiro said the two were not connected.

“do not talk about future plans,” he said repeatedly during the interview.

a thriving middle class and a still low Internet penetration, Brazil became a new and promising frontier for Internet giants like Facebook, Twitter and Amazon.

market research firm estimated EBIT Brazilians spent 28,000 million reais ($ 11.700 billion) online in 2013, or 25 percent more than the previous year.

But the largest economy in Latin America is also known for its high taxes, stifling labor costs and logistical bottlenecks that become e-commerce a challenging scenario for newcomers.

Unlike in the U.S., where Amazon operates its own distribution network from giant warehouses, Szapiro Brazilian delegate said shipments of the Kindle to outside firms, who declined to identify.

“Logistics in Brazil on one side can be a challenge, but from the point of view of electronic commerce Brazil is a very advanced country,” said the executive. “Some companies really prepared for that.”

Paperwhite Kindle will be sold through local Amazon site to 479 reais, or almost double the price in the United States.

Amazon has been under pressure to try to maintain its growth by investing heavily in its retail and distribution networks around the world, and expand into the world of technology with the Kindle, services and cloud computing online media products.

The company does not disclose figures on its operation in Brazil. But total international sales increased 14 percent to 29,900 million in 2013.

Szapiro said Amazon will initially offer free delivery of the Kindle and will allow consumers to pay in 12 installments without surcharge, a common practice in the Brazilian consumer market shows how far the company is willing to go.

“That’s new for Amazon,” he said, “but it is mandatory in Brazil.”

“What all this will be able to use in the future I do not know?” he added, “because we’re launching tomorrow is a different operation: an operation of physical sale”

“From north to south, from east to west, now we will be delivering products in Brazil,” said Alex Szapiro, a former Apple executive hired to command the landing of Amazon in Brazil.

“We learn from everything I do,” he said in an interview with Reuters on Thursday. “We learn about digital books, learn about Brazilian consumers and from tomorrow we will learn how to move products from point A to point B”.

Asked if selling Kindle was a rehearsal for a larger retail operation, Szapiro said the two were not connected.

“ Logistics in Brazil on one side can be a challenge , but from the point of view of electronic commerce Brazil is a very advanced country,” said the executive. “Some companies really prepared for that.”

Paperwhite Kindle will be sold through local Amazon site to 479 reais ($ 200), or nearly twice the price in the United States.

Amazon has been under pressure to try to maintain its growth by investing heavily in its retail and distribution networks around the world, and expand into the world of technology with the Kindle, services and cloud computing online media products.

The company does not disclose figures on its operation in Brazil. But total international sales increased 14% to 29,900 million in 2013.

Szapiro said Amazon will initially offer free delivery of the Kindle and will allow consumers to pay in 12 installments without surcharge, a common practice in the Brazilian consumer market shows how far the company is willing to go.

“That’s new for Amazon,” he said, “but it is mandatory in Brazil.”

“What all this will be able to use in the future I do not know?” he added, “because we’re launching tomorrow is a different operation: an operation of physical sale”

iPad or Kindle Fire Air HDX 8.9 inches What is Best? - IPadizate

Five reasons why the iPad would go behind the Amazon Kindle Fire HDX

It is no news that the iPad has some less than other models that are in the market characteristics, but neither is it nevertheless performance, performance and user experience offered by the Apple tablet is virtually unsurpassed. However, we find certain models that stand out above the rest, such as the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9-inch Amazon, a tablet with a great relationship money that leaves no one indifferent.

Some think that Apple needs to evolve on their devices and launch a complete overhaul of your tablet instead of getting “stuck” but you could say that I have begun to walk that road to renewal with the iPad Air, we only have to wait to see what happens in generations.

But how is this tablet compared to the iPad? A comparative lists with five major reasons that the iPad would be staying behind the Kindle Fire 8.9 inch HDX , so if you want to know you just have to keep reading.

price, a difference

First, one of the major differences we found between these two tablets is the price. In this regard we must emphasize two things: first, the price of the tablet, where we found a difference of almost 100 euros, as the 16GB model HDX Kindle Fire is priced € 379 and iPad Air 16GB amounts to € 499 .

On the other hand, there is no difference of the increase of a model to another by their storage capacity. Amazon raises the price 50 € while Apple increases price 100 € on each model.

Speakers

Secondly we talk about it on the speakers. In this respect the Kindle Fire 8.9 inch HDX is equipped with a Dolby Digital Plus system offers great sound quality. Meanwhile, the iPad Air also has a pretty good sound but may occasionally fall short. However, we must not forget that the iPad is not a device created specifically for media consumption but still offers a very good quality.

Battery Life

One of the most important aspects and that users often have much in mind when you were buying a new tablet is autonomy is your battery. Apple in that regard knows how to get the most out of your battery and manages to get up to 10 hours of battery life , but Amazon comes stomping with his new tablet and managed to get up to 12 hours of battery life. So as you see both tablets are evenly matched in this regard.

WiFi

iPad WiFi connection works perfectly and offers incredible performance, however the HDX Kindle Fire has a double MIMO antenna that increases the ability of WiFi and makes it superior.

However, not always enough to have better technology and better hardware, but also must see that is known to squeeze maximum performance and although Apple does not have many times more hardware pointer must recognize that their performance is unsurpassed.

A button

“Mayday” emergency

This is where Amazon takes a clear advantage, not only with respect to the iPad but with the other tablets we can find in the market. The company includes in its Kindle Fire HDX button “Mayday” that we only have to click a few times and we will get in touch with someone who will help us solve any problem we have with our device so you can make the most possible.

Nothing

chats, fill out forms or anything like that, speak directly with a person who helps us. In this regard, as they do on the website of ZDNet, we have to give 10 to Amazon.

Finally we can only say that both the iPad and Kindle Fire Air HDX are two large tablets you can find on the market and is already up to the user to choose which best fits their

needs.

The proposal of the Amazon Kindle Fire - Semana.com

The new Kindle Fire HD (high definition) comes in three versions: an update of the previous product, 7 inches (17.8 centimeters), and a new presentation with 8.9 inch screen (22.6 inches), which competes directly with the iPad, as announced to reporters the founder and CEO of Amazon, Jeff Bezos.

And even more to the Apple tablet challenge will be a third version of the Kindle Fire HD large screen with 4G connection, for the same price as the basic iPad, Bezos said at a press conference in Santa Monica, west Los Angeles (California, west).

“It’s a big market and do not want to talk to competitors,” he told AFP Dave Limp, Kindle vice president, when asked if they could consider HD Kindle Competitor Direct iPad.

“But I think they (Apple) have had very good experience in this market and we are very excited to join. Consumers will be the ones to decide if we are doing well,” he added to After the presentation, while journalists experienced the new versions of Kindle.

The new Kindle Fire HD have free Wifi and two antennas, Bezos explained to the press, ensuring that this connection has a speed 41% faster than the last generation of the iPad, launched in March this year.

The Kindle Fire 7 inch HD cost $ 199, cost the same as before the low-resolution version, which was revised down price.

Meanwhile, the new Kindle Fire tablet 8.9 inch HD cost $ 299, considerably less than the iPad, ranging between 400 and $ 700 figure, while the third option with 4G connectivity will Sales 499, the same price of the basic iPad.

This large screen tablet is 8.8 mm thick and weighs 560 grams.

“We speak here of the most popular price for a tablet, $ 499, but doubled the storage capacity and, incredibly, adding wireless 4G “said Bezos.

The executive said he wants to keep lower than those of their competitors because they want to win money selling the content and not the devices.

“We make money when they use our equipment, not when they buy,” he told reporters at the event, whose mysterious reason was subject to much speculation for weeks behind.

The rumor circulating more frequently was that Amazon presented its version of a smartphone.

“If I won a dollar for every rumor I heard in recent weeks … “said Dave Limp told AFP. “I am proud that people pay attention to us.”

In addition to the three new Kindle Fire HD, Amazon unveiled an update to its previous Kindle Fire and a new family of e-book readers, the Kindle Paperwhite with “front light.”: that is, with illuminated front screen, not from behind to avoid eye discomfort

With a battery life of eight weeks with lit lighting, Kindle Paperwhite will go Sales 119 and 179 dollars.

This year, about 19% of U.S. adults will use a reader e-books at least once a month, according to market research firm eMarketer, next year while more than a third used a tablet, while only slightly more than one fifth use a reader.

“The new Amazon Kindle is bigger, more powerful and better than ever and compete directly with large market, “said Jeff Kagan, an industry analyst. “It will attract more consumers who would otherwise have chosen a tablet like the iPad.”

Anyway, “is still not an iPad,” he said Kagan.
