    I agree, it is a glorified media player with basically no foreseeable productivity capabilities. It has no GPS and a laughable mail client. And for these reasons (and many, many, many more), it shouldn't be defined as a tablet, let alone a competitor to the iPad.

    I think it comes down to how one defines a tablet. If it's form-factor alone, then sure, the Kindle is a tablet. But when you define it as a new computing device that makes life and work easier, the thing is well, "kind of a sad excuse for a tablet."
