The Kindle has released its tablet to the marketplace – the question is – how will it impact an already saturated tablet marketplace. The Kindle Fire is being offered at $199, which is lower than every other tablet out there. So if you’re not going to spend a minimum of $500 on an iPad, or somewhere in the $300-$400 range for a Playbook, Galaxy Tab or Xoom – the Kindle Fire seems like a great choice. It may not have all the bells and whistles of the others – it doesn’t have a camera or video option – but for users looking for a tablet that isn’t an iPad, you’d be hard pressed to beat the value.
