I understand that. However I am comparing the size/price (as a mini tablet) to the size/price of the Fire 6. I'm saying I am not sure why someone would want to pay that ($249) for the phone, to use as a tablet, when the Fire 6 exists, and is significantly cheaper. What advantages would there be, especially when it doesn't even run Google Play?

On the other hand, if AT&T would offer it as a no contract Go Phone, I would be interested. That's the only cell service we use.
