(I know Amazon is on the FR enemies list but I’ve had excellent luck with their shopping portal and the Kindle and Fire.)
Enemies list or not, my HDX 8.5 inch Fire is great. It is far faster and easier to use than my Apple IPad 2. Indeed, it’s a really great tablet and I love it for books because I don’t have a pile of dead tree books driving me out of my house.
