Amazon, at their live event in Santa Monica CA, today announced the Kindle Fire 7″ HD. It is a major upgrade over the original Kindle Fire. I think Amazon really knocked it out of the ballpark with this tablet. The tablet comes in a 16GB for $199 and a 32GB for $249. The 16GB will ship on Sept
14th and the 32GB will ship on Oct 25th. Both versions are available for
pre-order today via Amazon’s website. Below are the specs of this new HD tablet:
- 1280×800 HD display
- Exclusive Dolby audio and dual-driver stereo speakers for immersive, virtual surround sound
- World’s first tablet with dual-band, dual-antenna Wi-Fi for 40% faster downloads and streaming
- High performance 1.2 Ghz dual-core processor with Imagination PowerVR 3D graphics core for fast and fluid performance
- Over 22 million movies, TV shows, songs, magazines, books, audiobooks, and popular apps and games such as Facebook, Netflix,
Twitter, HBO GO, Pandora, and Angry Birds Space
- Integrated support for Facebook, Twitter, Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo! and more, as well as Exchange calendar, contacts, and email
- Free Skype video calls with front-facing HD camera
- Free unlimited cloud storage for all your Amazon content
- Kindle FreeTime – a personalized tablet experience just for kids. Set daily screen limits, and give access to appropriate content for each child. Free on every Kindle Fire HD. Coming next month
