Amazon Fire tablet gets a lick of paint, more storage

PanARMENIAN.Net - The Amazon Fire tablet costs just $70, which is a bargain in anyone's book. And now it comes with more storage, and in three new colours - unfortunately, tickled pink isn't one of them, Digital Spy said.

You can choose from magenta, blue and tangerine, as well as the standard black option.

The 16GB model costs extra, at $85.

Amazon has also launched a higher-capacity model of the Fire Kids Edition. This is the tablet that Amazon challenges your kids to break - because if they succeed, Amazon will replace it free of charge, no questions asked, Digital Spy said.

The 16GB Fire Kids Edition costs the same $145 as the original 8GB model.

The 16GB Fire and Kids Edition are available to pre-order now, and will ship on April 28. Both have a 7-inch screen, quad-core 1.3GHz processor and front and rear-facing cameras.
