(Gadgets, Kindle Fire HD)
i'm satisfied with the battery life (11.Hrs) but it really should have come with Android Jelly bean and the processor isn't any thing to write home about they should have put a Snap dragon S4 but this Is supposed to be a budget tablet.
i'm mostly anticipating a tablet from intel maybe when haswell comes out or there refresh broadwell will things truly start to get interesting. might snap it up for the wife though.
The high-end model is a dual core 1.5 GHz with PowerVR... basically the equivalent of the current iPad, but with a higher rez screen. The smaller model is a 1.2GHz dual-core chip, probably with a weaker GPU as well.
Still not the equivalent of the PSVita, when it comes to gaming. I'll pass. I got a 9" 1280x800, 32GB Android Tegra2 tablet already. I don't think the extra pixels are worth the side-grade.
