Forgetting the iPhone 5 announcement next Tuesday, a new Kindle lineup has been unveiled just a few hours ago and Amazon has a lot of chances to win the competition now.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos took to the stage to reveal new Kindle devices and they all could become big hits this year. The lineup includes 4 devices, the 4th generation <em>Kindle e-reader<\/em> which is lighter, smaller and will sell for $79; the black-and-white 6-inch touchscreen e-reader <em>Kindle Touch<\/em> ($99) and <em>Kindle Touch 3G<\/em> ($149); However, the most anticipated one must be <strong>Kindle Fire<\/strong>, the first touchscreen color tablet from Amazon.<\/p>\n<p>This will not just be used to read books, but also plays movies, music and runs apps from Amazon&#8217;s Android Market. The Kindle Fire will be released on November 15 and it is available for pre-order now for just $199, much cheaper compared to $499 for Apple&#8217;s cheapest iPad 2. However, it is still very difficult to compete with iPad 2 as the Kindle Fire doesn&#8217;t have an embedded camera, microphone and 3G connectivity. Some rumors said that another version of Kindle Fire will go out next year and it will be a big competitor of iPad. The biggest advantage of Kindle Fire is the access to its large and growing content library of movies, magazines and music.<\/p>\n<table border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0051VVOB2\/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=twall-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399373&amp;creativeASIN=B0051VVOB2\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-479\" title=\"kindle-fire\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techwalls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/kindle-fire.jpg\" alt=\"kindle-fire\" width=\"422\" height=\"236\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techwalls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/kindle-fire.jpg 422w, https:\/\/www.techwalls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/kindle-fire-300x167.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 422px) 100vw, 422px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"http:\/\/rcm.amazon.com\/e\/cm?lt1=_blank&amp;bc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;fc1=000000&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;t=tekweb-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=as4&amp;m=amazon&amp;f=ifr&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;asins=B0051VVOB2\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\"><\/iframe><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Tech Specs<\/h2>\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" bgcolor=\"#EAF3FE\" width=\"20%\"><strong>Display<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 6px;\">7&#8243; multi-touch display with IPS technology and anti-reflective treatment, 1024 x 600 pixel resolution at 169 ppi, 16 million colors.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" bgcolor=\"#EAF3FE\" width=\"20%\"><strong>Size<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 6px;\">7.5&#8243; x 4.7&#8243; x 0.45&#8243; (190 mm x 120 mm x 11.4 mm).<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" bgcolor=\"#EAF3FE\" width=\"20%\"><strong>Weight<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 6px;\">14.6 ounces (413 grams).<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" bgcolor=\"#EAF3FE\" width=\"20%\"><strong>OS<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 6px;\">Heavily modified version of Google Android<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" bgcolor=\"#EAF3FE\" width=\"20%\"><strong>On-device Storage<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 6px;\">8GB internal which is enough for 80 apps, plus either 10 movies or 800 songs or 6,000 books.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" bgcolor=\"#EAF3FE\" width=\"20%\"><strong>Cloud Storage<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 6px;\">Free cloud storage for all Amazon content<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" bgcolor=\"#EAF3FE\" width=\"20%\"><strong>Battery Life<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 6px;\">Up to 8 hours of continuous reading or 7.5 hours of video playback, with wireless off.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" bgcolor=\"#EAF3FE\" width=\"20%\"><strong>Wi-Fi Connectivity<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 6px;\">Supports public and private Wi-Fi networks or hotspots that use the 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, or 802.1X standard with support for WEP, WPA and WPA2 security using password authentication.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This must be a good time to announce new products as manufacturers are fighting for the the Christmas shopping season this year.
