On another note, I totally recommend the kindle fire.
You can get it for a good price here:

The reasons I would choose the fire?
(1) Amazon now pretty much owns the media market, with ebooks/movies and music, and they are getting bigger all the time with kindles flying off the shelf.
So you have access to pretty much the best media selection, and the free amazon cloud. Not to mention very good library support with built in overdrive, so you can get plenty of free ebooks.
(2) The fire is the only device the supports flash now, so you can stream youtube - not even the ipad handles it.
(3) The screen on the fire is super hard and yet clear- very hard to damage.
(4) If you upgrade to future kindles, you wont lose your content - you just register the new kindle to your existing amazon account and all your old digital content is available. Not to mention, amazon is winning the format war big time, so I wouldn't want to be tied down the a loser format like the nook (no offense to the nook people out there).
Considering the price, and the perfect package, it's a no brainier to me.
Good luck :).

Kindle Fire Question. (Apps) HELP!?
Q. Okay, i got my Kindle Fire for Christmas. It's registered and everything. But im trying to buy a FREE APP and it sais :
"""There was an error purchasing ___. Please Click here to add an address to your account. (this will open your browser) and try again.""""
So when i clicked the link, it just went to my amazon account, and i dont know what they mean by address. i Already have an e-mail address registered to my kindle. so what kind of address? I REALLY want apps, and other stuff, so im confused? Thanks
A. Hi Cherry, this is only one of known problems with that lemon Kindle Fire you got. Other issues with Fire are 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 a fake where the browsing is actually slower than on other Android tablets, etc. Also, when Fire is activated it allows for 1-Click shopping through the account connected to the device, and such behavior cannot be turned off. Additionally the device asks for no confirmation password before validating the purchase, which means that if anyone gets hold of the device, he can purchase things at will. it is confirmed that Prime movies can't be downloaded, only streamed, making them impossible to watch without Wi-Fi on Kindle Fire. Also, on Fire when the Silk internet browser is pointed at the Android market, it reverts to the Amazon market with much more limited content. Amazon's own web site has hundreds of reviews (more than 1700 already) of Kindle Fire's new owners that gave it 1 or 2 star reviews because of choppy/laggy experience they got from this underpowered device.
You might want to consider returning it and getting Nook Tablet instead - it is much better without a doubt, it's a class above Kindle Fire. 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 (not 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).
Here's the sample pro review on the subject:
CNET:
We streamed Netflix side by side with the Kindle Fire, and head-to-head comparisons were very favorable to the Nook--it simply looked better. Both tablets have the same app, but the Nook Tablet's picture looked more vivid and detailed. The Nook Tablet also has physical volume controls on the side, which come in handy--the Kindle Fire strangely lacks them. The screen, which is a higher-quality IPS display than the Kindle Fire, really shows off Netflix and Hulu Plus to amazing effect...
It's the best screen on a budget tablet that I've ever seen. More storage--both onboard (16GB) and via microSD expansion--and the ability to read EPUB files could be big news for those who want flexibility. There's plenty of expansion room, and you'll have a hard time running out of space for your apps or your magazine downloads.
