As an author of 28 books on Amazon, 50% them on Amazon Kindle as of this year, I am well acclimated to Amazon’s Kindle generations.  The new Kindle Fire is so awesome, I am buying Kindle Fires for all of my close friends as gifts for the holidays.  I am also buying them a few e-books to have preloaded so they want to learn to use it.  The Bible was my first choice to load on mine and to preload on gifts I am giving to friends. 

I like the Kindle Fire is because it looks as sharp as an iPad, although a bit smaller, I prefer the size Amazon selected more than I do iPad.   The new Kindle Fire also displays four colors and I have been waiting a very long time for that feature.  Since I write craft books, showing color in the books is often a real need-like a color blending chart that is one of the most downloaded items in my work.

The price of Amazon’s Kindle Fire was unexpectedly affordable, and I am not exposed to ads on Amazon’s new Kindle Fire.  The screen can be read in the bright sun and that is a major plus since I like to work outside as often as I can. 

“Silk” is the operating system and browser for Amazon Kindle Fire and runs on a customized version of Google’s Android mobile operating system.  The Amazon Kindle Fire is faster because it uses Amazon’s Elastic Computing Cloud (EC2), in part, to speed up efficiency when using the web via Kindle Fire.    

I like Silk as a browser because it remembers the 3-5 web sites I like to visit every day, preloading them to save me time.  I am positive Amazon’s Kindle Fire is going to be a bigger hit than any former Kindle.
