Regarding advertising techniques and photoshopping images: I know this is common practice, but (as I said somewhere earlier in this thread,) I've never felt misled by Amazon before, and I've owned a Kindle from almost every generation (and some Sonys and an Nook.) In this particular case, I felt overpromised by a company that, in my past experience, tended to meet or even exceed my expectations. (Granted, I never owned a Fire, so I can't speak to the expectation vs. reality of the browsing experience.) I'm just not sure what the best option is. I am leaning toward returning it and waiting for a while before ordering a new one (to see if things work themselves out.)
