Don't MOST Android based tablets look the same anyway...? It's not like iPhone/iPads are any different looking either... Just the backs and sides.

in the fox news review the reviewer states that the kindle fires 7 inch screen is less than half of the ipads screen (my ipads screen is only 9.7 inches) apparantly the reviewer has a special 14 inch screen ipad that i was unable to buy :P

![]() ![]() Blossom, I hope they all run smooth! ![]() ![]() I've noticed reviewers saying the Silk browser doesn't seem to be any speedier than others, but that could also be because it's likely in beta stage and also they haven't accumulated enough of a cache yet to really get it going? And the software glitches will be fine-tuned as time goes on. I wonder how long before it's rooted? |

As jeremy81 hints, it is half the screen real estate, not half the diagonal length. It is, however, 80% of the resolution. |

We both sleep with our phones so I know how you feel. I don't think it will mess with my sleep patterns. I love to read for few hours in bed. I wouldn't call me a Insomniac but it takes me hours to fall alseep so reading helps me alot. |

The reviews on Amazon itself are not doing so well....even after ignoring some of the kooks...

I can't believe how many reviews give the Fire a 1 when the writer doesn't even own one. In my opinion, Amazon should delete reviews like this one...

Yes, and the many five star reviews from people without the device. I went through and rated down some of the most recent reviews when it was obvious they hadn't touched the thing.

One of my favorite reviews so far in from Chicago Sun Time's Andy Ihnatko. IMO he just "gets" the Fire.
