Darn it, in this age of instant gratification, when I ordered my kindle hd yesterday I expected it to be here yesterday if not sooner! I am also collecting apps to load on my new toy when it gets here, never mind that I will be much older and more decrepit when it finally arrives.
Posting from ny nook color, even though the screen is great, its never been fully functional for me. Even with cm7, its still limited as well as HEAVY!! I cant wait to get my KFHD! Though i find it ugly, its everything i want: portability, content, kindle reader and the ability to video chat with friends & family WITHOUT changing devices!!!
Color me happy!! I too want it now!

Well, sounds like you have passed the point of no return, the agony will only increase every day that passes. The only cure now will have to be tactile in nature by opening the box when it hits the door.

I'm waiting for 2 things before I buy. First, I want to see some in-depth reviews. Second, I want to see what Apple is going to do about introducing an iPad mini.

KFHD is ugly. What is it with Amazon's second generation devices?

There must be some guy in the design department who always chimes in: "I got a fever and the only cure is a bigger bezel!"

That said, I ordered my KFHD the day of the announcement. I love my kindle fire. And the KFHD has more cowbell bezel!

8.9" 32 GB for me. I didn't see much reason in not paying the extra $70 when I was at $300 anyway.

16GB for now. Might bump it up though. It just depends on how much the new "iPad Mini" costs and how the new iPhone ends up looking.

OH I AM SO WITH YOU ON THIS!!! OMG!! I definitely want the 7" to slide into my purse, however the 4G LTE!! It's such a great deal! But, here's something else to ponder: 4G is awfully fast and we'll probably blow through that quickly. Has it been said what happens after our 250MB have been used and the month is not finished??

Nope, but I think by the time November comes by, we'll be seeing more options, just like with the special offers being able to be taken off now.

I have the current 7" Fire but the new ones are tempting.

I've pre-ordered an 8.9" 32GB and do not want another data plan. When needed I can easily tether to my 4G phone that has unlimited data.

I ordered the Kindle Fire HD 7 32 Gb model. Unfortunately, it ships 30 days AFTER the 16 Gb model. Memory can't be added later so bigger is better.

I went with 7" over the 8.9" since I must fit it in my wife's purse.
