You do not have to wait until Black Friday or Cyber Monday to purchase the new Kindle Fire HDX 7 inch tablet PC from Amazon at a substantial discount. As the largest Web retailer, Amazon often does things on its own schedule, and this year the company has started off its annual Holiday Deals savings event by lowering prices across-the-board on the entire Kindle Fire 7 inch and 8.9 inch tablet lineup. And a free 30 day trial period of Amazon Prime is included, delivering free and unlimited streaming of hit movies and TV episodes, and free shipping options on purchases.
The Kindle Fire HDX is available for immediate shipment starting at $229.
The Kindle Fire HDX delivers a 7 inch display with several improvements over the previous Kindle Fire device, and Amazon recently added support for Second Screen and Goodreads integration. Goodreads is a social network owned by Amazon which is based on sharing and reviewing your reading preferences and book titles with the virtual world. You can share quotes with others, rate and review books on your Kindle Fire HDX tablet, and perform other reading focused operations.
Second Screen is a unique technology which pushes content from your Kindle Fire HDX tablet to your television set wirelessly. Though this technology is only supported currently through Samsung TVs and Sony’s PlayStation 3, with PlayStation 4 support on the way, multiple manufacturers have committed to adding this option. The new software update for the Kindle Fire HDX 7 inch tablet also delivers what Amazon is calling Cloud Collections.
Cloud Collections is an application which helps you locate and organize your applications, newspaper and magazine subscriptions, books and other data in a collection that you customize. This offers quick and easy one-location reference, and Amazon’s Whispersync technology automatically synchronizes the collections across all of your Kindle devices and reading apps. The Kindle Fire HDX 7 inch tablet delivers a True HD+ resolution of 1,920 x 1,200 pixels, a quad core 2.2 GHz processor, and 11.0 hours of mixed use performance from a full battery charge.
With dual band, dual antenna Wi-Fi access and also offered in a 4G model, the Kindle Fire HDX delivers a front facing HD camera, and is available in 16, 32 and 64 GB models. The versatile, multimedia tablet comes equipped with a built-in microphone, dual stereo speakers and Dolby Audio sound enhancement. The new and faster Silk web browser is on board, and Amazon has included its special built-in Mayday button which offers instant and free customer support. Customer support is also provided for free through e-mail, web and telephone access. You can purchase the Kindle Fire HDX starting at $229.
