I haven't seen any reviews anywhere mentioning that the Fire HD 6 is apparently OTG enabled. Never got this to work on my 8.9 even when I put a ROM on it. I was able to expand the storage of the HD 6 with the small micro usb flash drive I bought for my phone without needing any special apps to do so. It will be good to have a larger supply of offline media to use with this little tablet when out & about.

I've also noticed that different third-party launchers like Nova Launcher and such work on this tablet. Widgets and icon packs work as well. Still can't set a wallpaper, but if one gets bored of Amazon's launcher, at least you can get a different look.
