Amazon event and Apple announcement

So today there was an Amazon event were they launched a new Knidle Fire: the HD.
So the HD has a OMAP 4470 CPU (that Amazon claims to be faster than Tegra 3), 1GB of RAM, Wi-Fi with MIMO technology and a 8.9' 1920x1200 pixels and a ppi of 243 and all that for a whooping price of 300$. And there will also be a LTE version for around 500$ and that will come with 250mb of data traffic. First tablet has 16GB of storage and the the LTE has 32GB and there is no words about expandable storage. Both of them also come with goodies from Amazon, and will run an Amazon skinned version without Google services.
And also the old Kindle Fire recieved a spec bump with double the RAM and a 40% faster CPU (say OMAP 4470) and the price will be cut to 160$.
And there will also be a Kindle Fire 7' HD with OMAP 4470 that might be a different story from the spec bumped first gen and that might be with what Amazon wants to compete against the Kobo tablet launched the other day. The price of the HD is around 199$.
And they also launched a bunch of other readers that have a very nice 4 LED technology and fiber optics for better screen reading.
Not bad Amazon, not bad!
And also Apple announced that they will drop support for 3GS when they will launch the 5. They said that instead of 3GS there will be an affordable 8GB 4S introduced.
That's all for today folks! See you soon!
