i have the new nexus 7 also. the definition/dpi is so incredible that it's even better than on my 1080p 40" tv (which I also use as my computer monitor).

the other thing that really makes the nexus7 2013 pretty hot to trot is the quad-core processor... it's lightning fast. I had an original kindle fire and this thing really blows it away on speed, plus the KF had its little walled-garden aspect to the operating system so having stock android 4.3 makes for an experience that is thankfully not comparable to the KF.

I would NOT recommend a Kindle Fire (any version) simply because the connector for the power input is very poorly executed and the KF's tend to lose the ability to be recharged. I had mine repaired twice and then it died a third time out of warranty (12 months) and i was just stuck with a dead machine. I tried the local fixit folks (3 companies) and all said the same thing: the new Kindle Fire still has the same problem, and word on the street was that there was no intention to fix it. Planned obsolescence? whatever, I decided not to buy another one, even though the customer care department so generously offered me $20 off a non-HD replacement.
