As for the quick charger, I should have delivery this coming Friday. It should be interesting to see how fast it charges the old KF. |

Edit: On a side note I ordered the 7" Hd. Did you order the 8.9" if so that would make more sense, because they will not ship this month. Last edited by DustyDisks; 09-11-2012 at 01:44 PM. |

IMPOSSIBLE for the HD 7 32 Gb model !!
Quote:
The only way you could be getting it that quick is if you live in China one block from the manufacturing plant at FoxConn in Shanghai. Then you will get it as it leaves the plant. I just checked my account order page now and it shows a delivery estimate of Sep 14, 2012, for the HD 7 PowerFast charger and the HD 7 Standing Leather case. It still shows Oct 25, 2012, for the Kindle Fire HD 7 Dolby Audio Dual Band WiFi 32 Gb model. Maybe you ordered the Kindle Fire 1st Generation model in error which will ship on Sep 14, 2012. If you ordered the HD 7 16 Gb model, it will ship on Sep 24, 2012, one month prior to the shipment date of the 32 Gb model. Last edited by sirmaru; 09-11-2012 at 02:53 PM. |

I just checked, and apparently so? How hard was it for Amazon just to whack a bigger hard drive in since it's basically the same innards?

It is a different card that is hard wired into the unit, as I understand it. And probably take a technician more time than it is worth to change it out >?< |

We will probably all get delivery much earlier than the stated dates regardless of model ordered. Amazon always delivers before their estimated delivery dates.

I got my 7" HD yesterday and used my Kindle 2 charger with it and it didn't take very long to get it fully charged, but it was already 60% charged and I was able to use it while it was charging.
The 16 gig 7" HD was originally slated for 9/14 shipping and they were a day early, while the 32 gig one was scheduled for Oct 15. Since HD movie files are SO much bigger, I think it's wiser to wait to get the 32 GB one. |

I must be out of step with the universe. I don't have a single extra power adapter that would work with the kindle fire.

I've used the Samsung Galaxy S2 phone's adapter to charge the original Kindle Fire over the last half year and the battery lasts a good length of time. |
