Well for $200 what the A1 has lots of features that the Kindle Fire doesn't.

Camera, Bluethooth, GPS, microphone, MicroSD slot, HDMI out port, Android Market, Google Apps, industry supported 2.3 Android and the option to double the eMMC.

It stand toe-to-toe with the Nook color and has a faster processor 1GHZ vs 800MHz. And all the points mentioned in the previous paragraph apply.


And before you say "I don't care for XYZ" the same case can be made about your features.


The point here is that for $200 users really do have comparable choices, one just has to decide what are the key features.
