I am curious to find out what Amazon is doing for the Kindle upgrade. The tablet I don't care about. I already have an iPad and it's a better tablet then whatever Amazon will be bringing out.
The Fire was never intended as an iPad replacement. They don't even have the same screen.

Now, if Amazon brings a 10 inches tablet into current market, that's different. However, we can't certainly say if will be better or not, as we don't know specs.

i'm more looking at the nexus 7 for a tablet.

Kindle, until it read ePub, i don't give a damn about what other qualities it might have...
No way i'm converting all my ePubs when i have other options.

Just bought the nook glow light, wondering if the new kindle will have better hardware thereby justifying a return (atleast to me!).

Excited about tomorrow as well!

Actually, the press conference is at 10:30 a.m. Pacific Time, so we still have one day and three minutes.

I thought that went without saying. Absolutely we need to get a life—right after we succumb to temptation and buy a new Kindle tomorrow.

We're in the hours!!!

I meant the e-ink kindles.Never really looked at the fire, not available in france anyway.
I might have gotten one when it came out if not for that. Most likely i'll get a nexus 7 if i decide to buy a tablet.
