“It sports a color touchscreen, looks much like a BlackBerry PlayBook, and has no physical buttons on the surface of the device,” writes Christina DesMarais of PC World.
MG Siegler of Tech Crunch has actually seen and used Amazon’s Kindle tablet, and he divulges some details in a post on the tech site. He confirms the device is a back-lit 7-inch tablet with a full-color, capacitive touch screen. The tablet is black, with a rubbery back, a power button on the underside (which, Siegler notes, is a bit odd), a micro-USB port, and speakers.
Unlike the iPad, the Kindle tablet probably won’t have a camera.
