It is probably in this thread somewhere but how do you listen to a radio station with the KF and not lose it when opening another tab to browse a different website at the same time?

WFAN SportsRadio 66 out of NYC I believe.
Can you do multiply things at the same time with whatever you listen to with TuneIn? |

I don't know if anyone posted about this site yet but I was able to download the 1 Mobile Market directly to the Fire and it looks and works great. Some neat stuff there. I was mostly interested in the Skyfire browser which works well. For some reason Dophin was a complete dud on my Fire. Skyfire is better. I have to say that Silk is not slow for me and I haven't found anything faster yet.

Yes the fire can play music mp3 files or audible books in the background while surfing the web or other activities other than apps of course which normally take over the audio and lock u out.
as long as you can see the task bar you can do multiple things at the same time. |

Where did you get your copy of Dolphin and what ver is it and is it mini or hd version? Try opera mini as well and check the forum on sideloaded browsers Many here have used Dolphin successfully on their Fire including me. Last edited by salsaguy; 01-11-2012 at 12:44 AM. Reason: typeos |

I tried Dolphin Browser now for a few days on an older tablet I have to see if I liked it. I'm hooked and I'll install it on the Fire soon!
Edit: Just finished and I updated my bookmarks. It is working great on all those sites so far! Last edited by robertc88; 01-11-2012 at 01:48 PM. |

I use Dolphin HD and I love it. I have not had any kind of speed with Silk.
