By Recent complaints regarding the hardware and software inconsistencies of the Kindle Fire tablet have been answered by Amazon, promising a software update in the course of the next two weeks. Even though the tablet has sold well, a lot of feedback proved to be criticism towards the performance and the user interface, which encountered serious issues.
Inconveniences related to hardware cannot be reconfigured, such as the placement of the on / off switch, which can lead to accidentally shutting down the tablet on many occasions, or the lack of volume controls in the external part of the device. However, as stated in the New York Times , the upcoming Kindle software upgrade should make the overall experience of the device better than it is at the moment, improving the general usability of the Kindle Fire.
The upcoming software upgrade for the Kindle Fire tablet is good news not only for the users, but also for all the potential costumers in the UK , since the device is currently unavailable in Great Britain, therefore UK buyers will acquire the improved version, without having to experience any serious issue. The Kindle Fire price in the UK will be around $200, making it an amazing piece of technology available at a fairly low price in early 2012.
With the current version of Kindle Fire having success, the new update is believed to attract even more costumers and reach a number of five million Kindle Fire tablets being sold in this quarter alone by Amazon.
