I like Amazon and the idea behind the original Kindle (the e-ink one), but it bothers me:
- They are all over with their tablets trying to compete with iPad or Samsung ones, it doesn't seem to have the same focus of the original: simply a good device to consume digital content. They will lose if they try to compete like that, trying to release full-featured tablets at low margins.
- Their event is way too much like Apple's WWDC. I mean, even the slides look like they are done on Keynote. It doesn't give a good impression.

It was nothing like WWDC--there was no developer conference. It was a single presentation. That they possibly used a major presentation application to run a presentation is not very surprising. They probably had coffee in the back of the room too.

Why would they lose? The Kindle Fire seems like a great device to consume content: movies, music, books, and also many popular Android apps.

Doesn't give a good impression to whom? Do you think the average Amazon costumer cares? I don't.
Why wouldn't the slides be done on Keynote? Keynote is an excellent presentation app, and it's not like Amazon makes their own presentation software that they ought to be using instead. I can't understand that comment at all.
