Amazon Launches Kindle Fire HDX Tablets, Fire OS 3.0 | Paul Thurrotts WinInfo content from Windows IT Pro

Excerpt from a Paul Thurrott Kindle news update

"Both devices are thinner and lighter than previous-generation Kindle Fire HD tablets, and both are significantly lighter than comparable iPads.
Given Microsoft's consumer device aims, these new Kindle Fire HDX tablets represent a serious competitive threat. The recently announced Microsoft Surface 2 starts at $449 and features a slower processor, has a lower-resolution screen, and comes saddled with a far less impressive ecosystem of apps, services, and hardware accessories."
