Amazon Drops Kindle Fire HD To $119 For Cyber Mondays

The discount sales on tablets continue with Amazon.com deals on the Kindle HD and HDX.

The 7” Kindle Fire HD is The Kindle HDX price dropped to $179 (USA only) for Cyber Monday. Amazon.com warn that quantities are limited.

The Kindle Fire HD 7″, HD Display, Wi-Fi, 16 GB (Canada) is one of the last year’s best selling of an Android tablet especially for Amazon.com customers who are already using Kindle. At $129 for a 7″ Kindle reader and Android tablet how can you go wrong?

Since I am in Canada, I ordered the $129 Cyber Monday special since the HDX is not rated much better than the HD by users and obviously not worth twice the price. I will use the Kindle Fire HD as a Kindle reader mostly but who knows.
