Today in NYC, Jeff Bezon (CEO Amazon) unvelied the impressive Kindle product line.
Kindle (4th gen) - $79
Kindle Touch - $99
Kindle Touch 3G - $149
Kindle Fire (tablet) - $199 (7-inch IPS display, dual-core processor, 14.6 ounces). Fire ships November 15th and you can pre-order it today.
This could be a game changer as Kindle Fire will compete neck to neck with Apple's iPad. Amazon has released their first tablet computer at an astonishing price of $199 and this could ignite the fierce competition. Another big day for Android, as Kindle Fire will get all its fire from the open source OS and I am sure that will leave an lasting impression on the consumers. I really need to see Amazon Silk in action. This is the new browing platform based on the powerful EC2 (elastic cloud) technology offered by Amazon and it functions on the principle of dynamic split browsing another thing which makes me curious on its functionality.
See Kindle Fire in action:
Well done Amazon. Tablet war on its peak and all eyes are now on the October 4th event, when Apple will release the much talked about iPhone 5.
