I know this has no relevance but I work at UPS and today saw two huge boxes of Kindle fires just made me laugh cause we handle a lot of single kindle boxes but this was the first time I saw a box like this each one had at least 200 kindle fires in it for a total of 400. I could not see if it was going to a residential address or commercial (pretty sure it was commercial) but made me laugh one person would order that many for them self.

If I was rich I'd order 1 for my whole family. I work at FedEx so I see a bunch of Amazon stuff every night

1 for your whole family? That's not rich, that's cheap.
1 for each of your family, now that's different.

Really interested in getting one of these. Haven't used a tablet before and I definitely don't want an overpriced iPad.

I have a suspicion that Staples may have gotten the lion's share of the initial allotment. The BB in my town only has two in stock (one with my name on it) in preparation for today's opening. The two closest Staples (both in nearby towns, 30 miles away) each have 10 units....

Amazon probably got a lot too. It seems you can order from there and it doesn't have it listed out of stock yet. I placed and order there just now. If it ships before my bb order I'll just cancel the bb order.

are they in line for the xoom or 3ds?
I think it's for the 3Ds
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
It's more likely that they were camping all night for the 3DS. They probably don't even know what's the Xoom.
I just checked all the local stores and they are in stock. I think its only online orders. Drop by a bestbuy. I am also in the city.
I expect a total sell out in all stores 20 min. after they open! Most stores are reporting only 10 in stock xooms. I think Amazon got them all. I looked on E Bay this morning and I couldnt believe some are asking over $1000. for a 3G xoom!.
I was worried of a line so i just ordered from BB online and picked store pick up. Just got order ready email. To bad for anyone on a line when i get there and just walk right in to meet my Xoom

Turns out the guy who posted it said his local news said it was for the xoom and that they interviewed the people in line and said they were waiting for the xoom

Yeah the one by me has them.. But I have to wait now.. When I saw it was backordered I placed an order on amazon and chose 1 day shipping.. When I went back to cancel it so I could do an in store pick up I couldnt Amazon was already prepping to ship it I will have mine on tuesday
Then I'm going to see where I can get in the dev department with it.
Just picked mine up at 10:00 am from Best Buy in Milwaukee WI. I was the first and only one to in at that time to buy one. They had about 8 of them.

Picked up 5 via the walmart price matching. 123.38 (133.** tax)
Would you be interested in selling one to a fellow SDer and xda member?

It's not a coupon code. It's a long-shot pricematch. You have to convince the manager that Trubull, CT Target is competition, finagle their vague price match guarantee (Walmart or other stores) and hope for the best.
I would pass one on to a fellow forum member but the five that I purchased were all snatched up as holiday gifts.
I got 4 today com SD

I just sold my Kindle Fire to Gamestop. So I can get the new Nexus 7.
I just wanted to say thank you to all the amazing developers out there for the Kindle Fire.
Especially Hashcode, you have made the most amazing ROM's and the 3.0 Kernel made the icing on the cake.
Thank you everyone

Im going to move on to the nexus 7.

Someone on local classified ads was wanting a tablet for his 32GB iPhone 3GS.
I offered my fire with custom rom and overclocked, and I might be selling my kindle fire for a 3GS + $25/$50.
Is this, or is not, a good deal?

It depends on the quality of the 3GS, but a good condition used 3GS is worth ~100$. You can probably pick up another Kindle Fire for around there, so with the 25/50$ I'd say it's a decent deal.

Well, the 3GS has a brand new battery + screen, and it's supposed to sell for $175, but a new kindle fire is around $225 here in Australia.
The buyer knows how to root and stuff, so he's not extremely interested by the rooted-ness.
And the seller decided on $30.
