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.

3gs is a really old phone. Even my fiance's iPhone 4 runs like crap. I wouldn't take two 3gs's for any version of Kindle Fire.

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.

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

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

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

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.
