I bought a Kindle Fire to replace my aging Kindle (1st Model). For me it will make a fine book reader, (especially for reading in the dark) with some enhanced functions. Overall, it feels like a prototype - everything works, almost, but not very smoothly. It is based on a fork of Google's Android, but oddly enough, does not have a native Google Maps app - it has Mapquest instead.
Screen scrolling is jerky. I like the size - great for books, not so great for magazines.
It feels heavy - but I expect my muscles will develop with use :-)
For a full review - read any of the reviews popping up all over the web.

Havana Staircase 2009
My latest watercolor painting. I was struck by this staircase in Havana, Cuba, on my visit in 2009.
