Since the day may come when the grayscale devices may be running Android rather than the current, custom O.S. -

(It is not like a well-run business to leave the provision of Android/Grayscale Kindles in the hands of a few Chinese when they could be saving a sh.. load of money supporting only one O.S.)*

Perhaps:

Change: "Fire" --> "Android"
Add: Oasis
Add: K1

Should be our request list of changes.

* Besides, having Android on the Oasis might help ease the 'sticker shock' among potential Oasis customers (it probably isn't an accident that the Oasis looks like a 'phone), while saving Amazon a whole lot of money in custom O.S. development costs.
