The only article about the looming Amazon tablet that mentions a hands-on look was using an Amazon internal PROTOTYPE. I don't believe anyone has had access to the production version nor would they be privy to pricing or market app access. Amazon won't be so silly as to produce an iPad (or iPod) like environment needing only proprietary software to use the device or control content. The target market are people who eschew Apple products for just that scenario so how would putting out such a device not push those potential or even existing customers pretty much to any other device? People like me who are just waiting to see if there is a good deal here but must have total freedom on how we use the thing we paid for, as in bought not leased. If it doesn't have this then other options will get our cash and cause us to recommend anything but Apple or Amazon to our friends.
