Speculating, I think this means the Fire will accept and process mic input in 8kHz signals but not 16kHz. At least that's my guess.
So, audio notes live! I was able to email them, send to Evernote, and play them back using the Amazon MP3 player. What a nice "undocumented" feature to discover!

Great news! So now we know that it can record in low quality only. Now if someone with a Skype or Google Voice account can check if those can be made to work, then we're really getting somewhere.
