Though I have been defending Jakob Nielsen's credentials, I happen to like the Kindle Fire. A lot. What do I have to compare it with? Between my wife and I, outside of my large computing platforms I can directly compare it with a Kindle 3, Motorola Xoom tablet, Samsung Galaxy 10.1 tablet, Samsung NF310 netbook, HTC EVO 4G phone, and an old Palm Pre phone (OK, some comparisons are more appropriate than others but the point is that I have a lot to choose from). My Kindle Fire is now getting more use than any of the others. It works well with my Seagate GoFlex Satellite wireless drive. I haven't bothered to root this thing but I have sideloaded a number of apps not available from Amazon (and switched to the Dolphin browser). The only real complaint I have is the inconsistent touchscreen sensitivity.
