It was not a rumor that Amazon had filed with the FCC for a new Fire TV. Yet no where did Amazon make an announcement they were discontinuing the Fire TV as you pronounced. AND there was no article stating the Fire TV was discontinued. Your post saying it had definitely been discontinued is blatant FUD.

BTW when I posted the article telling of the new 50 dollar tablet you called it "rumors from unknown "knowledgable people"?" The link I provided was from the Wall Street Journal and BTW here is the New Fire Tablet:

No, Mad Dawgg, the article you posted for the continuation of the Fire TV cited THIS as the only evidence that a new Amazon TV was going to be released, all other articles referred to his claims:

A new FCC filing . . . for an “HDMI Digital Media Receiver” with support for 802.11ac WiFi and Bluetooth 4.1 and that it comes from a company called Quill Royal LLC which uses a PO Box in Boise, Idaho as its street address… suggesting that the company may only really exist on paper.

Which the author of that article CHOSE to interpret meant that Quill Royal LLC was somehow a pseudonym for Amazon, ignoring the fact that Amazon had no need to hide behind such a front organization for FCC licensing because they were ALREADY in the set-top streaming video box business and would not be revealing anything to any competition.

Hiding behind a pseudonymic company name is something a NEW ENTRANT COMPANY uses to keep their entry into the market quiet until they burst on the scene as a surprise. Amazon doesn't need to do that. Apple did that with the iPhone while getting FCC licensing and has not needed to do that since. Amazon's last licensing did not do that. Why do it now?

I still stand by everything I said about Amazon's $50 Kindle Tablet. READ your own Wall Street Journal and see where they got their information. It came from unnamed "knowledgeable sources." That is exactly what constitutes a RUMOR, Mad Dawgg. If someone won't put there name on a report, it's a rumor, nothing more. You cannot put any more credibility on it than that.

What did I state that was UNTRUE???? Where was any false analysis? Where's your proof that Tablet was designed at Amazon by their engineers in the USA? You have none. Nothing has changed.

'Which the author of that article CHOSE to interpret meant that Quill Royal LLC was somehow a pseudonym for Amazon, ignoring the fact that Amazon had no need to hide behind such a front organization for FCC licensing because they were ALREADY in the set-top streaming video box business and would not be revealing anything to any competition."

hahaha OK then so I guess everyone else was wrong and you were right. There is no new Amazon Fire TV coming out...

hahahaha You do understand that what you claim is rumor was actually fact and what you claimed as fact that Amazon was discontinuing the Fire TV was 100% wrong.

And btw you kept asking if they are still in the hardware business where is the stuff... Well the stuff is here. And once again I am right and you were 100% wrong. First TV is not discontinued.

Good Job FUDster...!
