As one of the people who has been most critical of the Fire, I suppose I should chime in; yes, the Fire has improved since it was released. Many small bugs and quirks have been fixed. There are still quite a few issues that I have with it, especially with things that I consider omissions such as the less-than-fully-capable reader app, and confusing and limited Cloud service. For a full list read my review on Amazon (under the name Billy Radcliffe). But for the most part I now consider it a device I can recommend, if not enthusiastically.
As to WHYY, yes check out TuneIn - you can get live stream there. I also recommend Stitcher for getting NPR podcasts.
