This is why I never buy first generation hardware/software. There are always bugs and whatnot. However, I did make an exception for the Fire. I thought that they would surely have a top notch book reading app. I guess I was wrong.

I mostly will use the Fire for book reading, watching videos, and surfing the web. I was hoping that these things could be done quite well and am disappointed to hear about the issues with the Fire.

I don't own an Android device and the article makes it seem like the issues described with the Fire are indicative on all Android devices. Is this really the case?

I have played around with all the major tablet devices and none of them comes close to have as nice an experience as the iPad. But at $199 (with no tax) I figured the Fire couldn't be so bad as to have buyer's remorse. I don't think I will have buyer's remorse but I was hoping for a more stellar user experience.
