Kindle Fire/tablets?

[knowledge]

Anyone planning to get one? For 200 bucks it seems like a decent tablet. The only thing that worries me is that it only has 8GB of storage; and it isn't expandable

Are there any better alternatives? I just want something to put movies on + read & the ipad seems like overkill since I don't care for the games or apps. Above all, I just want something that works & isn't slow

The BB playbook is better all around for the same price.

+1... If just comparing the two, the playbook is a better buy than a Kindle.

Take a look at the Brand NEW Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" . It retails for $249US and is far superior in virtually every way.

Playbook hands down over a Kindle.
