BTW, even though I think Amazon needs to add the ability to disappear the Carousel, and I think they need to address many of our complaints with the reading app, I'm still happy they are at least doing updates. B&N took forever to put out extremely lackluster updates on the NC. Apple rarely releases an update to address customer wishes--they are usually just to add features Apple wants.

Yes the Fire badly needs some firmware tweaks, but it is way ahead of the other tablets when it comes to reading. So much so that I sold my iPod touch 4G and my iPad over the weekend. (I'm now almost iOS free. I kept an older iPod touch 2G to run a Satellite tracking app that beats anything available for Android.)
