I had a Fire for a few days. Didn't like it stock, so I rooted it and installed ICS. It was a reasonable tablet, but the lack of a GPS and therefore all the location based services was a deal killer. I returned it. For now I have a couple of true e-Readers and an iPad, but I'm still looking for that one device that does it all well enough be it Android, Apple or a Windows 8 tablet.
