yup. Her Kindle has the wifi. Don't think this this is android

Kindle fire is Android based. There is Amazon app store. I don't know if
the entire Google app store is available but it should be easy enough
for Tim to find out. One thing I've noticed is that the latest codecs
for the new hi def cameras weren't included with either my Archos or
Toshiba tablets. If Tim finds that true with the Fire, the easiest
solution is to install one of the many free players that work.
There are a lot of good free apps as well as terrible ones. Make sure
you install a good Antivirus before you start playing around,Tim.

We got our 8-year old granddaughter the Pandigital tablet for Christmas. It got sent back for the
Kindle Fire almost immediately. Don't know why, she just wanted it. I suppose there's something
about it that's better.

My father in law has a Nook and my wife bought a chip full of
software that you plug in that makes this pretty much a fully enabled
Android machine. It seems interesting but you still would not have GPS
and I don't think this thing is Gx, only WiFi.

I have no idea what 'Android' is all about. My cell phone works when I need it, and my Callaway GPS
tells me the distance to the next green. What more could I possibly want?
