Hi everyone, as you all may know its Christmas! Merry Christmas! Anyways, i want to buy a kindle for my aunt as a present but the thing is that she lives in South America. Would the kindle fire work there? I ask because maybe the market doesnt work because of the IPs, since Netflix doesnt work in south america due to different IPs.
Thanks in advance, and please be safe today!
For standard Amazon purposes forget it.
Once rooted, no problem
Prime only work n.the.sates im n puerto rico and we are mad because of that!

I just got the Fire to use as a standard Android tablet. I don't even use the prime features.

Has anyone been able to play order and chaos on their fire?

It's available in the Amazon App Store, and there are 9 reviewers, so I'm venturing a guess that yes, it's playable on the Kindle Fire (aside from that 1 review saying that it's not playable).

Looking to get a kindle fire for 120 to root and put Ics on it. Is there a better choice at the moment? So many crap android tablets its hard to tell what is good right now. The lack of Bluetooth is the only option the fire does not have.
Has anybody tried the haipad?
Pure ICS only
i suggest you hold off till google i/o and see if they release one for $199
Yeah I know been hearing it going to be around 150. But either way if I get the fire now I can sell it it for what I paid for it.
Pure ICS only
HP touchpad was pretty cheap

You can get the Lenovo A1 for $169 brand new on Newegg. I don't know if there is an ICS build for it though. Another option is the Anovo or something like that. Also around $169 new.

I found a kindle fire on Craigslist for $100 already had one so no use to me but look around there you should be able to pick one up cheap that way.

I'd say that for now, the Fire is the best Android tablet for under $200.
This Hyundai device direct from China for $110 seems pretty good. Also available in black.

Ben's Outlet has the refurbished 7” Acer first gen tablet for $170 and that has an ICS upgrade.

I actually did sell my kindle fire and stepped up to this - fantastic device for the money! Though the development community is no where as active as this one is yet.

Maybe nook tablet? im just waiting to see if they make a kindle fire 2, and if it has features that the first kindle fire is missing
Have you found a 10" tablet with ICS in that price range? Quality build, even if generic or name brand.

there are several cheap ICS tablets available, I'd recommend uPlay tablet C70, it sports 1.2 Ghz processor, muti touch 7 inch screen, front camera that does full 1080p and has an HDMI port. The best part is that it comes dirt cheap at $79 with one year warranty!

Craigslist son!
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

Because it was 'Like New", 85$. So not too bad, but because its towards the purchase of a Nexus 7, its a good deal
they only offered me 60 and mine looks brand new. so I preordered from googleplay

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.

Hey,
since the kfire HDX is getting released and the original kindle fire is nearing it's second year, I thought that it would be interesting to pop up a poll to see how much people are still using the kfire (1st gen).
Me. Im not upgrading to the hdx, but i might win a ipad mini from the city council for doing a recycling mascot for the city.

Have had my 1st gen. for a year now and have updated to newest 4.3 and still never have had a issue that I can say wasn't unbearable. Daughters have the 2nd gen and thats a POS.. And never fails when watching movies or music... Im sticking with my 1st gen
Went for the 32GB Nexus 7 (2012), since it's cheaper and I think it's a nice upgrade to the kfire and I can put ubuntu too on it
I still love my first gen, it was a great cheap tablet, but sadly it is underpowered in today's market. Oh well I am rocking CM 10.2 that's good enough

The kindle fire HDX is the first amazon tablet I've seen that actually competes with the other ones in this market.. (spec wise)

I too have a first gen, and yeah it's a bit slow now in comparison. But I still use it and enjoy having it! I am using Jellybeer on mine after trying a couple of other roms that didn't turn out well. What rom are you using tfor CM 10.2? Jellybeer is only 10.1 that I know of.
