Disappointed with no audio/TTS. I don't use it much, but still. (And it is not clear that Fire HD has TTS, just the audiobook whispersync thing). And only 2GB now (actually only 1.25GB available). Crap.
I just ordered one, and will probably not cancel, but my vibe is a little harshed. Note the $49.99 4G plan for Fire HD LTE is just for the first year. After that, presumably it goes up to the normal $14.99/mo that AT&T charges. Last edited by tomsem; 09-06-2012 at 04:50 PM. |

Least I know of alternatives. Yeah, Audible would be nice, but I don't want the monthly expense to go along with all the other monthly bills. |

She can get those waived if she pushes it. She's not returning it because she doesn't want one. She's wants the better one. You may try Kindle support's chat. I've had good and bad experiences. Calling is the best option.

True but returning the K4 SO and the case will get me a PW and money back. Off course the PW will also require a case. Ohhhh, decsions, decisions.
