Wow. So they are actually selling the Kindle Fire at below cost. I guess the idea is that they make up the loss in all the content its users end up buying.

My advice is not to buy one. A friend of mine has tried every e-reader there is. I did not know this but Kindle Fire downloaded books can not be read outside or indoors around florescent lighting. Just Kindle is better.
