Apple I- Phone

Yes, you read that right. The US version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus is attainable and now available for pre-order on Amazon; pre-orders for Samsung’s 7-inch Galaxy Tab Plus went live inEurope sometime last week. Be that as it may, there is still no statement on a specific release date. The Samsung news just keeps pouring in.

Now while combining the Google apps and Android Market, it also presents a kosher Honeycomb experience.  The Galaxy Tab 7 Plus has undeniably the Fire beat in the specs section; I am skeptic that the Galaxy Tab 7 Plus is going to be dethroning the Kindle Fire on Amazon’s trade charts.

With the 16 GB for $399 and the 32 GB for $499, it may have a tough time locking horns with the relatively tatty, rock bottom pricing of the $199 Kindle Fire; though it does seem like an appealing assortment. 

Does the Kindle Fire do ample at fraction the price of the Galaxy Tab 7 Plus, or do you desire the more competent hardware of the Galaxy Tab 7 Plus and want the true Android experience? What do you think is a better option (and don’t be biased)?

Amazon today announced a handful of new Kindle e-reader products, including the first ever Kindle with a colour display – the Kindle Fire.

Firstly, Amazon has lowered the barrier of entry once again with a new entry level Kindle. For $79, the WiFi-powered Kindle Button features a none-touch 6? e-ink display. It will be the first Kindle without a built-in QWERTY keyboard. The new Kindle Button will be available from today.

Next up is the $99 Kindle Touch. Like the Kindle Button, the Kindle Touch will not have a QWERTY keyboard.  Instead text entry will rely on the infrared touchscreen similar to the technology used by Sony on their PRS e-readers.  WiFi is included as standard. A 3G version is priced at $149. Both versions will be available from November.

Finally, Android has announced that it will be making its entry to the tablet market with the Kindle Fire. Priced at $199, the Kindle Fire will feature a  7? IPS display and dual core CPU. It will run on a fork of Android, and thus will be compatible with Android apps. The Kindle Fire will be compatible with a few Amazon services announced today, including the multimedia orientated Whispersync and Amazon Cloud Storage. It will ship from November.

The new Kindle devices are available for pre-order today.
