advantage of this.  But…

8GB vs 16GB memory storage (with ability to add 64GB more to reach 80GB)!
No SD slot
No microSD slot
No GPS
No Front Video Camera
No Rear Video Camera
No Microphone
No G-Force Accellometer
No full Android Apps
No Netfix
No Bluetooth
No Mirco HDMI output
No Removable Battery…(and more).
And yes…you can buy things on Amazon using the A1.Other than that, the $199 Kindle Fire is better than the $199 Lenovo Ideapad A1.

The Kindle Fire will be issued on a first come, first serve basis. So it is wise to get your Kindle Fire for $199 right now. Just click on Tony Temi to get it.

This should be a given on all tablets, but so many tablet makers have left out this essential feature.

The 4GB storage is a joke. We also wanna hear dual core processor!

Depends on what’s most important to a person I guess.  Speed or cameras.

Touch screens are garbage! (unless of course you work in a bar or auto repair shop)

You think that’s the big difference between this and the fire? How about the microsd?  That’s quickly becoming a deal breaker for me.
