The iPad from Apple is out and it has really made the users crazy. The reviews of the iPad showed that the tablet received great praises for its amazing features. The price of the iPad by Apple was set at 499$.
The Amazon on the other hand, the greatest rival of Apple has set a new price for the Kindle e-reader. The price is expected to be around 259$. According to Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster, the attempt by Amazon is a bold move. This attempt might prevent Apple to grab the sales of the Kindle. However, he also claimed that Amazon is uselessly involving into a battle with Apple because there is no hope for Amazon to win the battle against Apple. Instead it should focus more on its other features.
Though Kindle from Amazon is charming and attractive yet it is quite faded when it is compared to the iPad from Apple. Though it has several ergonomic advantages yet it greatly lacks the colorful and the large sexy screen of the iPad. The increasing rate of the Kindle may not be supported by the public because it is basically a device for single use and the customers might highly consider it to be over-priced.
Reports gathered from different sources claim that Amazon is savvy of an e-tailer and perhaps it would not limit itself to just only a single platform. Perhaps the next few months would show what Amazon wants to bring in more for the customers.
