  1. That is a very well organized and clearly written presentation. With your permission, I’d love to quote or refer back to it when answering similar questions on Yahoo Answers.

    Would it be permissable to use the actual Kindle Fire during the speech? That could give you some meaningful extra minutes.

    Don’t be surprised if that snarky “The Truth” fella doesn’t show up here to regurgitate his bile.

    Good speech!

  2. Hi Kodakgirl1232, let me help you fix your misleading speech from Amazon marketing department filled with disinformation. If should go instead something with like that:

    Kindle Fire is the worst tablet on the market that is not worth $ 200 it costs. It is a complete lemon of a device that should be recalled as known issues with Kindle Fire include but not limited to that it runs hot to touch, video playback is jerky, touch screen is not responsive and it takes 2-3 touches to register, power button placement is very poor and is prone to accidental power off, all the hype of Silk browser is not true where the browsing is actually slower than on other Android tablets, Wi-Fi connection gives a lot of trouble to users on it, etc.

    Amazon’s own web site has hundreds of reviews (close to 2000 already) of Kindle Fire’s new owners that gave it 1 or 2 star reviews and over 1,000 of 3-star reviews because of choppy/laggy experience they got from this underpowered device.

    If you call Amazon their menu actually says “if you have a problem with your Kindle Fire, press three” – they must have been swamped by people’s complaints to put it on the menu.

    Nook Tablet (that can be purchased and repaired at Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Millon, Walmart, BestBuy, Staples, OfficeMax, Fred Mayer, P.C. Richard, Radio Shack, Target, Fry’s, Kmart, Sears etc. stores and web sites) is MUCH better than Kindle Fire – it’s like day and night in terms of the device performance. All pro reviewers on the web clearly voiced that Nook Tablet is a much better device with superior performance compared to Kindle Fire. It’s got Netflix, Hulu, Pandora, Angry Brids, etc., the best battery life (30% better than Fire), the best non-glare laminated screen (no lamination on Fire), double the RAM and space for apps/photos/movies than on Fire, microSD slot and a microphone for Skype (not on Fire), physical volume controls on the side (not on Fire), very smooth video playback with excellent screen, and very fast apps load (unlike on Fire).

    Nook already has Cloud as your ebooks and apps are stored in your online library as well as downloaded to your device however Kindle apps do not “work” on Cloud – to use apps they need to be installed on your device and Kindle has only 6 GB available space for everything (apps, ebooks, photos, movies) and of that space only 1.0 GB is allocated for apps – with no microSD slot to expand the capacity – not nearly enough, my phone has more space. Besides, you cannot get to Cloud where WI-Fi connection is not available.
