<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><strong style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">We are</strong><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;"> just days from Christmas and if you rely on online businesses and shipping, there might be a big chance that you won't get your gifts unless you order pretty soon. With that in mind Amazon has just slashed €30 of the Kindle Fire HDX 7 tablet, at least on its German website.</span></span><br /><div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"></div><div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgotRyiNWSIvpmU9TYKtbQS06o8AJ05k12Z4yYeDYy8GFviGoN4IfjzBPkkF1fq0ORRhyphenhyphenJsuY-f6DOKGVkEbit306VmxwbJzr-EXofSFkj3RSP_tWgWkVgqUkkp4Y44W5BtwuuMxdnKS-C5/s1600/Amazon_Logo+(1).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgotRyiNWSIvpmU9TYKtbQS06o8AJ05k12Z4yYeDYy8GFviGoN4IfjzBPkkF1fq0ORRhyphenhyphenJsuY-f6DOKGVkEbit306VmxwbJzr-EXofSFkj3RSP_tWgWkVgqUkkp4Y44W5BtwuuMxdnKS-C5/s1600/Amazon_Logo+(1).jpg" /></span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The new Kindle Fire HDX with a Snapdragon 800 processor, great screen and 16GB of storage features just one downside, a locked down operating system, but then again it is selling for just €199. The 32GB version now sells for €239, while the 64GB version is €279, much less than an iPad mini with Retina with comparable storage.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Amazon wants 14 euro more if you want the Kindle HDX without adverts on it and LTE versions starts at €309 for 16GB, $349 for 32GB and €389 for the 64GB version.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The same deal works for UK customers who can now buy a Kindle Fire HDX for £169.00 for 16GB, £199.00 for 32GB and £229.00 for 64GB, or £30.00 less than yesterday. Amazon was not so kind to French and Spanish customers as they are not getting this rather sizable discount, at least not yet.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can grab one in Germany <a href="http://www.amazon.de/dp/B00D2J4D4U/ref=sa_menu_kdpthwi6/278-2507715-6534216" style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; color: #003366; cursor: pointer; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">here</a> and in Britain you can take advantage of the discount <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00CYR6UTM/ref=amb_link_1178881947_2?ie=UTF8&nav_sdd=aps&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-1&pf_rd_r=1DW7A4X4D25T7QHCZYYP&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=456311827&pf_rd_i=468294" style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; color: #003366; cursor: pointer; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">here</a>. </span></div>

The company hopes to continue to instill that vibe with the latest<a href="http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=176060&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1877777&highlight" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #25a7d7; text-decoration: none;">software update</a> for its Android-based tablet line. Fire OS 3.1 begins rolling out Monday to Kindle Fire HD and Fire HDX devices, bringing with it a few new features, like enterprise support and wireless printing to turn your existing Kindle into more than just a destination for ebooks and video. The update also beefs up the last-generation Kindle Fire HD with some of the HDX’s marquee features.</span></div><h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; margin-bottom: 0.25em; margin-top: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;">BYOD, finally</span></h2><div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 1.7em; margin-bottom: 0.7em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For Amazon to make its tablets a be-all, end-all device for consumers, it needed to cater to the business crowd, too. The device now includes better enterprise support with features like the ability to connect to secure Wi-Fi networks and log on to a corporate network via VPN. Fire OS 3.1 also supports Kerberos authentication for more secure browsing of your company’s internal Intranet through the Silk browser, as well as a Kindle-specific device management API to make life easier on your IT department.</span></div><h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; margin-bottom: 0.25em; margin-top: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;">See what your friends are reading</span></h2><div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 1.7em; margin-bottom: 0.7em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Amazon aims to be more friendly with the integrated Goodreads social network for book lovers. The service lets you connect with friends to share things like your favorite quotes, what you’re currently reading, and what you thought of the books you’ve read. You can also import every book you’ve ever bought or read through Amazon into your Goodreads account and sign up for a daily or weekly newsletter that offers suggestions on what’s new to read in your favorite genres.</span></div><h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; margin-bottom: 0.25em; margin-top: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Share your screen with your TV</span></h2><div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 1.7em; margin-bottom: 0.7em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As if the Amazon Video app on almost every set-top box out there wasn’t enough, the bundled Second Screen feature is now supported for the older Kindle Fire HD. Second Screen lets you “fling” movies from your Kindle to your television set through supported third-party devices. Amazon writes that the feature is meant to free up your device so that you can use it for apps like X-Ray or browsing the Web—a definite ploy to get you to always use the device when you’re thinking of entertainment in your living room. The feature is currently limited to the PlayStation 3 and compatible Samsung TVs, though Amazon writes that it will be available later this year for the just-released PlayStation 4.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 1.7em; margin-bottom: 0.7em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Other miscellaneous features in Fire OS 3.1 include things like wireless printing and voice dictation to convert your speech into text. Voice dictation is available in all languages when you’re connected to a network, though only English is available offline.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 1.7em; margin-bottom: 0.7em;"><i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Source : <a href="http://www.techhive.com/article/2064508/amazons-kindle-fire-update-brings-the-best-of-both-worlds-to-the-fire-hd-and-hdx.html">TechHive</a></span></i></div>
