I think the Verge reviewer, in comparing the Fire to an ipad, is the wrong approach. Of course it's not going to compare. Although I may have read some things that indicate this is supposed to be a similar product, of course it isn't.
I want it for the high resolution and the cheap price. It has the same resolution as my 2013 Nexus 7, but more storage, with SD card option. The Nexus has a great screen for reading on. Compared side by side with my Fire 8 (1200x800) the NExus screen is far superior. So I am going to trade in the crappy Fire 8 and rely on the 30 day return guarantee!
