First and foremost, Amazon could have charged a lot more for this INCREDIBLE piece of technology. I own an iPad and the Kindle Fire could be the baby version to the iPad. Visually the screen is so clear and crisp. There are many features to discover. When your 1st start it up Amazon will download the latest software and then install the software. It takes about 5 minutes. You will go thru the process of setting up the time zone etc. It instantly recognized my router. I typed in the pass word and I was online. It took about 30 seconds. I downloaded the Netflix app. OMG, the movies look and sound great. The volume is not as loud as an iPad but it is sufficient. The free Prime membership movies look great! All of my books were already downloaded. There are many different fonts and viewing methods for reading a book. At the top of the home screen press the "sun looking" icon --- this is where you control volume,brightness, turning on wi-fi, sync and more. I only played with it for 15 minutes and currently it is charging. On the home screen is the word "Docs" go there and there is the guide to use the KF. From fresh start up until it downloads a website---- it's about 30 seconds. If you can afford $200 BUY IT!!!!!!!! As I stated in the beginning Amazon could have charged much more. I think APPLE SHOULD BE SCARED --- this is NOT an iPad killer but it comes real close.
