Today, Amazon held a major event in Los Angeles, where it announced updates for its entire Kindles line. Now, the Kindles Fire won a high resolution screen, new processor and many other new features. The original ereaders were not left behind, and they also received improvements in their screens and response time, in addition to light to read in the dark.
Tablets

Kindles Fire HD comes with new high-resolution screens. The 7 inch version [16GB – US$200; 32GB – US$250] has 1280 × 800 pixels and IPS technology. The largest, 8.9 inches [16GB – US$300; 32GB – US$370], has a resolution of 1920 × 1200 pixels – for comparison, the third generation iPad has 2048 × 1536 pixels in 9.7 inches. Both have an OMAP 4470 processor, HDMI input, Bluetooth and support for Wi-Fi networks.
The larger model also has a 4G LTE version [32GB – US$500; 64GB – US$600]. For him, Amazon prepared a new cool data plan. With just $ 50 a year (!), Users will have 250MB per month to spend accessing the web, plus 20GB of cloud storage and a $ 10 card to be used on Amazon. Amazing!
The old Kindle Fire also got an update, now with twice as much RAM, faster processor and longer battery life. Starting at $ 160, your Amazon tablet’s locked screen will be populated by ads from the company’s partners (a measure she calls “Special Offers”).
Also updating its mobile system, Amazon is announcing war against other tablet makers, with its incredibly low prices.
Ereaders

New ereaders from Amazon also hit the shelves. The new version Kindle Paperwhite comes with a screen with 62% more pixels. Increasing the contrast by 25%, Amazon now offers a better reading experience, enhanced by the new front light – which allows reading in the dark. In this category there are three, the options offered by the company: Kindle [US$90; US$60 na versão com anúncios], Kindle Paperwhite [US$140; US$110 com anúncios] and Kindle Paperwhite 3G [US$200; US$180 com anúncios].

The tablet market is heating up, especially among the smaller ones, at around 7 inches. The highly speculated “iPad mini” is expected to compete tooth and nail against all these new models, if he ever sees daylight.
