No discussion for new Kindle Fire lineup? - silvarios - 10-02-2013

Nice spec bump, decent price points, and a 24/7 live tech integrated service on the HDX models (Mayday)? Yep, seems pretty compelling to me. Anyone biting?

Link to 7" HDX. If you scroll down there's a comparison chart of the new models and the old 8.9" HD as well.

I'm a big fan of the Kindle line -- it's what got me into eBooks in a big way -- but when I hear about the Fire, I always think of this snippet from SNL (fwiw, I had trouble getting the vid to load, but Seth Meyer's quote is in the article): http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-20114520-71/snls-seth-meyers-pours-cold-water-on-kindle-fire/

Just got the Nexus 7. Really nice.

I have last year's model on semi permanent loan. Pretty nice. This year's model looks like a nice bump.
