Nothing what you can droid with your Kindle Fire


To fully use all of the features of your Kindle Fire, you must register it to your Amazon account. this phrase was cited from the first line in page 6 of Kindle Fire User's Guide. Let me recall at first why we are enthusiastic about iPad and Androids even they ask us for locking their cages. Frankly, in my personality I don't like Apple's closed strategy as much as their innovative and stunning philosophy yet. But Surely we know well there will be a obvious benefit in return even we become a hostage by Apple or Google. Even we realize they are foxy T-rex, we expect surely they, not a grocery merchant, give us music, film, book, new paper, video, map and tons bunch of garbage but useful. Now returning to the Kindle Fire, who is Amazon? What they allow us to act in their brand new opened walled garden, Kindle Fire? Definitely nothing to Kindle and Kindle Touch. Still they sell books, games with colored icons and allow us to play in its garden of web through Amazon's bouncers. This noble taste of Amazon has reflected to technical specification of Kindle Fire exactly and stays at e-book reader era wearing a tablet mask. There is nothing except for color LCD disaply on Android operating system at $200. No camera, no GPS, no SD slot, no HDMI, no bluetooth, no MIC and even no rooting. The Android without those functional parts should be named as antidroid. At the end of last year, the Apps of Android was published over 60 thousand but we find just around 1800 Apps in Amazon Apps market now. Last holiday season Amazon sold 4 million units of Kindle Fire in December and I wish the users who bought this tablet satisfy its cost effectiveness and usability as it is.
