[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1445512, member: 38928"] It's the first time the Fire range has been available in the UK. We aren't getting the 9" model - well no annoucement yet anyway. But £129 as the entry level 7" tablet is very good value. The 16gb and 32gb HDs are priced the same as the more powerful 8gb and 16gb Nexus 7s respectively. So the pricing is bang on. However the Amazon UK music store and LoveFilm are not a patch on what's available on the US Amazon Prime package. So I'd say they are more attractive as a browser/email/mild apps device than a full blown media consumption device as it's pitched in the US. Providing they've eradicated the slightly sluggish behaviour of the customised ICS front end I think they'll do really well in the UK. More and more people keep asking me about small tablet, not wanting to reach the £329 entry asking price for the iPad2. There's definitely a fight for the 7" tablet market [/QUOTE]
