Kindle Fire South Africa – Currently Available Here. Make Sure You Register Before You Buy!

The days of the iPad could be numbered. That’s because the Kindle Fire has finally been launched after a lot of speculation in the market about its release date. The experts are already saying that this new Kindle Fire, the latest smart gadget from Amazon could potentially be an iPad killer. Whether it actually does so, and how the iPad bounces back is yet to be seen of course. But one thing is already been predicted, and this is that, the new Kindle Fire is sure to thrill an entire generation of people who have followed these Kindles for a while now. It comes with all the features of older versions, and there are a few additions too. The early reports are extremely positive as well. Consumers who have tried this gadget from Amazon feel that it lives up to the high expectations.

So it seems that for the first time, we have some competition for the iPad. This new Kindle has been launched by Amazon on November 15th 2011, amid a lot of fanfare. There have been many published reports that it has the potential to emerge as the leading digital book reader. Many people who are interested in the iPad are taking a serious look at this real alternative. Here are a few reasons that make this a great gadget.

The Kindle Fire is cheaper than iPad

The Kindle Fire will cost you just $199. Compared to this, the iPad starts from $499 – that’s a whole lot more than the new Kindle. In fact, the iPad costs so much more that you can even buy one more Kindle and give it to somebody as a gift, and then too, you will be able to save about $100. It is really extremely difficult to justify why the iPad costs so much more.

You will get the Kindle Fire with the guarantee from Amazon

Often, you will get tablets from companies that are not quite well known. They offer a lot, but end up delivering much less. That’s because, quite often, these products are not made with the best quality materials. But with the Kindle Fire, you don’t have to worry about this. Kindles sell more than any other product on Amazon, though there are thousands of items on display at this leading online store. And you will be happy to know that the Fire is currently the showpiece item of Amazon. They want to be proud of what they are offering here, and this is why, you can certainly depend on what you are getting. After all, the reputation of Amazon is at stake here.

Kindle Fire – the salient features

Here are some of the main features of the Fire that make it stand out.

• It has a seven inch color display. The touch screen display has 1024×6000 display resolution.
• The internal storage memory is 8GB.
• This device has 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity.
• The Kindle Fire is extremely lightweight. It weighs a mere 413 grams.
• It is extremely handy. It will fit into the inside pocket of your jacket or a large purse easily.
• Amazon Cloud provides you unlimited content storage abilities. Cloud Storage will allow you to access millions of books, movies, music and apps from the Kindle store and the library anytime.
• Just charge your device once, and you will be able to use it for 8 hours straight.
• You can choose from more than 100,000 movies as well as television shows and download just what you want to watch.
• Like the other Kindles, here too, you can of course read books, newspapers and magazines. Though the Kindle Fire is a media machine, but it primarily remains a digital book reader.
• It comes with all the favorite games and apps.
• This device comes with a headphone jack, and the stereo speakers have been built into it.
• It is powered by a fast and powerful dual-core processor.

Kindle Fire – shortcomings

The major shortcoming of the Kindle Fire is that, this gadget is at this time only available for people in the United States. And so, people from South Africa and the other countries cannot order this device now. There was a time not so long ago that Amazon used to ship all their Kindles just to people who placed their orders from the United States. But thankfully, this policy has been changed since then. Thus, you can certainly expect that the Fire will also be made available to people from overseas soon enough. After all, it has just been launched. We have to give some time to Amazon here. There are absolutely no reasons why Amazon would like to limit the sale of the Kindle Fire just within the US in the long-term, while the other gadgets are being sold worldwide.

Some people have also commented that the Kindle Fire does not have any cellular capabilities. Because of this, you will not be able to connect this device to your cellular network. It will however be able to connect to a wireless network. Others have complained that this gadget does not come with a camera. However it needs to be remembered here that the new Kindle is primarily a reader, and that’s the area where Amazon has concentrated to deliver improvements over the previous versions. And so, if you are primarily looking for a digital book reader, then you can excuse Amazon for this.

You can certainly buy the Kindle Fire, the new digital reading device from Amazon. It has been launched barely a month back, but already about 8,000 people have purchased this new Kindle at the Amazon online store. It has been rated highly as well. 68% of all users have rated this product 4 or higher on a scale of 5. Overall, the Kindle Fire has achieved a rating of 3.9 out of 5 stars. If you are somebody who loved using the latest and the smartest gadgets, then this Kindle Fire is certainly for you.

Buyer Notice – Important: Some of the big boys in the US & UK like Walmart , Target, Best Buy and RadioShack have started selling the whole kindle range for the exact same price as on Amazon, in their brick and mortar offline stores, last year. This is not at all the case and will not, if ever, happen in South Africa. Understand that the offline/online stores in South Africa are buying their stock directly from Amazon. So there is no way for them to match the Amazon stock price.

There is actually two offline stores now selling the device in South Africa which I wont name here for obvious reasons. These stores and some of the online sites can cut cost on import tax, duties & shipping because they order in bulk, but you will always find that they are still a couple of hundred bucks above the Amazon stock price. And with repairs the device goes directly to Amazon tech lab anyway, not to your SA supplier. Fact! Besides you will need an account with them anyway to buy your Kindle books. Your device will come fully setup and ready to go. So we here at eReaderPlanet recommend buying ONLY directly from Amazon. Please follow the rest of our buying guide below.

The First Generation Kindle

Launched in November 2007, this was the original product from Amazon. It was an instant hit. Amazon was able to sell out all the products within just 6 hours flat. But the demand kept pouring in, and so, there was a five month waiting list for this gadget. The memory space here was 250 MB, and it could hold 200 books. It was priced at $399. The screen size was 6 inches. The first generation Kindle is however not on sale any more.

All you had to do was just rotate the gadget. The screen size at 9.7 inches was also larger here. This device was PODF file compatible as well, and so, you could easily download PDF files to your Kindle DX and read them. Because of this, the gadget began to be used for business purposes too. Users could view charts and graphs. Its battery life was also improved as compared to the first generation readers. If you used the Kindle Wi-Fi, then the battery lasted for a week, and without this, you could use it for anything between two and three weeks.

Kindle Keyboard – Wi-Fi & Kindle Keyboard 3G

For the first time, Kindle provided free 3G + Wi-Fi. This product was launched in August 2010, and though initially it was named Kindle 3, but later on, it began to be known as Kindle Keyboard 3G. The Kindle Keyboard 3G provided both Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity. You could access from almost anywhere, and naturally, the users all loved it. The Kindle Keyboard just provided Wi-Fi only. This product was smaller in size and more lightweight too as compared to the DX model. It had an improved memory space and was thus able to hold up to a staggering 3,500 books at any time. It also supported mp3 music and audio books as well. For the first time Amazon introduced the e-ink technology to make reading completely glare free and a pleasure.

Kindle Touch

If you want a digital book reader that comes with text to speech features, mp3 and is audio book compatible too, then this is the one for you. If you love touch screen, then too you should select this free 3G + Wi-Fi model. You will be happy to know that the 3G works globally. The Touch will not cost you a fortune as well. It has been priced at $99, and $139 with the special offers. It continues to use the advanced e-ink technology, thus making the text and images really crisp. It comes with all the advanced features that users have come to expect from a Kindle. Its memory space is also very good. It combines everything and yet, is extremely easy to use.

The Kindle Fire

This is the latest gadget from Amazon. The Kindle Fire was launched in November 2011. This is where Kindle breaks the barrier and becomes much more than just a simple digital book reader.

There Are So Many Kindle Products – Which One Should I Buy?

It is an important decision that you will have to make here. So be careful – it is always a good idea to do some research before you make up your mind. There are many factors that must be considered. For instance, do you want global 3G, do you want Wi-Fi+3G, do you want a bigger or better display, or are you looking for a digital book reader that can save you money? Just keep the following in mind, when you are buying a Kindle.

• If you are looking for a Kindle with Wi-Fi but don’t really need global 3G, then you should go for the 4th generation Kindle – it just costs $109. There is the Kindle Keyboard too with Wi-Fi that costs $139. However this model is unavailable at this time.

• If you are a frequent traveler, then what you need is a device that comes with global 3G. There are two options for you here. You could select the Kindle Keyboard 3G – it comes with free 3G and Wi-Fi, and costs $189. The second option for you is the Kindle DX – the 3G here works globally. The DX model costs $379.

• If you want a bigger and better display, then you can select Kindle DX or the Kindle Fire. The DX model has an incredible 9.7 inch display with e-ink technology. The Fire has a 7 inch full color multi-touch e-ink display and it offers Wi-Fi too. But you should know that the Kindle Fire and Touch models are not available in South Africa at this time. So remember this when you are making your decision.

• If you want the cheapest model, then there’s a model available for you that costs a mere $79. This 6 inch gadget will however display advertisements on your screen. You will receive special offers and sponsored screensavers on the display. You can get this same gadget without these offers and screensavers if you feel agitated or distracted by them. It will cost you $109. That’s an additional one-time investment of $30, and so, it is certainly worth it. And the fact is that, you cannot anyway buy the $79 Kindle in South Africa, because this model is not available in the country. So go for the $109 Kindle in South Africa if you wish to save money.

It has become a huge rage ever since the Amazon Kindle was launched a few years back. From then on, in every one and half year intervals, a new Kindle device has been launched. Each of them has been widely appreciated as well, thus spurring the demand for newer versions of this digital book reader. One of them has been the Kindle Keyboard – it is popularly called just the Kindle 3, since this is the third generation Kindle from Amazon. It’s a fantastic gadget really. Do check it out on Amazon and you will know why. More than thirty five thousand customers have purchased this on Amazon already. Overall, Kindle 3 has achieved a rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars. This is really an amazing feat.

Here’s a detailed Kindle 3 review. Read it to know about the various aspects of the Amazon Kindle 3.

Design

The Amazon Kindle 3 Keyboard with its soft-touch back coating and graphite paint really looks lovely. In fact, there is really not much of a difference between how the Kindle 3G and the Kindle 3 looks. Its dimensions are 7.5×4.8×0.3. It weighs 8.7 ounces, and so, it isn’t really as lightweight or small as the Touch. However this can be attributed to its QWERTY keyboard.

The On/Sleep/Off slider in your Kindle Keyboard is located at the bottom and is really convenient to use. Buttons at the lower portion and the sides have been streamlined. Thickness of the page turn buttons are just 0.2 inches. Some people feared that the Amazon Kindle 3 would be difficult to use because of this. However, all the four buttons are very firm and they give you a sturdy feel. The Previous and Next page buttons are located at the side. This means, you can use them easily on your Kindle 3, whether you are a right-hander or a left-hander.

User Interface & the Kindle Keyboard

The interface works and even looks almost the same as the previous version. Read your Kindle 3 review, and you will know that there are some changes though in the textbook rentals and the library lending features. But these changes are at the Kindle Store end, and not on the gadget itself. The Amazon Kindle 3 can be easily updated by upgrading the software to 3.3. You will be able to get this done automatically when you connect through the Wi-Fi.
