Paul, why do you bash the fire hd tablets so much. They're not horrible, they are actually pretty good for watching movies, getting email, browsing the web, going on Facebook or ordering from Amazon. Got one for my wife (not very tech savvy) and she's completely satisfied. I agree it's not the best tablet on the market but for the money it's well worth it.
