In fairness, you are comparing devices which are a year and a half apart -- it'd be like someone saying I tried an Android tablet in the beginning of 2010, and they all suck.
But my point was that Amazon needs to keep a large-size reflective reader in it's line up, regardless of the upcoming tablet.
From what I've heard, the Amazon tablet doesn't appear to offer anything significant to separate it from the myriad 16x9 10" tablets flooding the market -- it will most like be a reskinned Galaxy Tab, possibly subsidized to entice users to enter into Amazon's ecosystem.
But in my experience the Galaxy Tab is sub par to the iPad 2 in terms of user experience (before someone accuses me of evil things, I have gone through a Galaxy S, Vibrant and now I use a Nexus S).
So, again, I see nothing earth-shattering here.
