True but Apple is forcing amazon out of Apple devices and many people prefer multi purpose devices compared to plain readers. Amazon will loose many customers to Ipad so its better for them to introduce a tablet. Another thing is at the moment all Android tablet manufacturers are pricing their product very high almost equal to the Ipad. So their is a huge market for someone that brings a good tablet in the market at cost and Amazon is in the best position to do so.
