The Kindle has become a very very popular hand held device that started out solely as an E-book reader, but has evolved into much more. What started out as a single model has now expanded into many new models each with its own signature design for different types of users.  I am still using my old school 7’’ original E-reader and even after years it’s still working just great. Today Amazon announce a brand new batch of products including the new 7” Kindle Fire, which features an all new Kindle e-reader with an illuminated PaperWhite display that should appeal to those who do a lot of reading. Although the size remains the same the new K-Fire has 40% faster CPU, twice as much memory and longer battery life than its predecessor.

Going along with their new hardware we will now see the Kindle Fire getting access to Amazon’s latest software features, these includeX-Ray for Movies, X-Ray for Books, Immersion Reading, Whispersync for Voice, and also Kindle’s latest FreeTime features. Be on the lookout for many new deals with companies like Intel, AT&T and Discovery. The real whopper or jaw dropper however is the news that not only is the new Kindle Fire better, faster and more flexible. Amazingly it’s coming to market at a lower price point than its previous generation peer and will be selling for $159.00 around $40.00 less than the original. If you are interested in this new technology preorders will begin today if you want to get one fast.
