Title: How Apple Could Be Burned - or Warmed - by Fire
Post by: InfoGuru on Nov 11, 2011, 03:02 AM
 The surveys comparing the hotness of the Amazon Kindle Fire to the Apple iPad 2 are hitting us in full force: a pair of them seem to show that the Kindle Fire, with its 7-inch screen and friendly US$199 price tag, seems to be digging into Apple's mountain of iPad mindshare. "Surveys, smurveys," you say. "Who cares about a dinky Kindle Fire? It doesn't even have a camera, not to mention FaceTime. And it definitely doesn't have the cool Apple logo or a big screen, and it doesn't work with everything on my iPhone." I pre-ordered a Kindle Fire anyway.
