It's not when it came out, it's the technology that it's using. The kindle is using the same screen and display controller that most of the other devices are, even though it came out later than the iLiad.

The way iRex has referred to "generations" in the past has been:

6" screen + alpha controller (most devices, including the kindle) = Gen 1
8.1" screen + delta controller (iLiad) = Gen 2

I'm assuming that they're using the same definition they have previously, and that now they're adding:

10.2" screen + improved delta controller (DR1000) = Gen 3
