I ordered the Kindle Fire. It's not a tablet like the Ipad but a media device. You can read, watch movies, browse the web, check email if in a wireless internet area. No camera or other computer programs, no USB ports and not 3G. It's a bells and whistles E Reader. It cost Amazon $150 to make each one. Amazon intent is to make profits from the book/movie purchases. Like printers are sold with little profit but the ink will be the profit.
