Amazon needs a BIG color tablet to sell more of their formatted for a large screen content many of which demand full color to be of any actual use to the reader.

I am figuring there will be a smaller 7" as well as a 10.1" 16:10 screen tablet.

I don't get the ideas about the hardware will be worse, whatever that means, than the iPad. It has at best marginal hardware. I do see a Tegra 3 in the near future if for no other reason than for the improved video hardware it provides which would benefit Amazon's video rentals and sales.
