In the comparison chart under audio it says: mono speaker. Headphone jacks are always stereo so you can hook up stereo speakers or headphones.

Well the Fire I listed on Amazon already sold, so I pre-ordered the 6" tablet right away. If I hate it (the size) I'll return it. No way to know til I have it in hand.

Ooops. Had to cancel and re-order. Why settle for black? I got the blue.
I may have my Paperwhite already sold too.

Yours is better. I didn't think about the plugin speaker option.

Down the bottom where they are comparing the different models to each other.

You guys are selling your devices this early? I figured I would wait until a week before to sell it since I use my Fire daily.

I can't find anything about text-to-speech, maybe I overlooked it, do these new tablets have text-to-speech?

Mine is just sitting for months doing nothing. I can get some extra groceries so yes if I can sell it now is a good time because others see what the 2014 line is and know what they are interested in.

I'm sure they do. Amazon has bought out that one company so we have all the voices on the 2013 version.

My girls and I share the 3rd gen Fire that I sold, but they mostly use their Nook HDs, and I use my Nexus or 2012 Fire HD. So we won't even notice that it's gone.

I can't wait to try reading on the 6" Fire.

They are showing a Fire Kids Edition with special features for younger kids.

They are NOT showing a Kindle Fire HDX 7 2014, only the 8.9 2014. Thus, they don't even have a model which I may buy. I'll keep my HDX 7 2013.

But at least that device can add an SD card here you are limited to what you get

I will. My daughter (11) said it's not yours! You already have readers! True, of course, but I still get to play with it!
