See the Kindle Fired HD 8.9" device. It has a larger screen and higher resolution than the iPad.

Some organization just did a "shootout" between the iPad and Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 and you can read about it here:

Kindle won HANDS DOWN.

The exact contest is described here:

Here is their conclusion:

"Most impressive of all is the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9, which has leapfrogged into the best performing Tablet display that we have ever tested, significantly out-performing the iPad Air in Brightness, Screen Reflectance, and high ambient light contrast, plus a first place finish in the very challenging category of Absolute Color Accuracy."
