Amazon Trending To Sell 15 Million Kindle Fires By 2013

Written by Vladimir Bundalo on . Posted in GADGETS

Amazon had quite the first day with sales of the Kindle Fire reaching 95,000 units sold. Forecasts are reporting that by the end of 2013, Amazon will have sold 15 million Fire devices worldwide.

This figure is based on the assumption that Amazon will release at least two more Fire type devices during this period as well as expanding availability to markets like Japan and Western Europe. At a competitive price of $199, and more than enough features to keep plenty of purchasers happy, there is no doubt this will be one of the hottest selling devices this year and probably to follow into 2012. Sure, it’s a stripped down tablet and doesn’t have  things like a camera, but at $199 who cares. Hit up the break for the press report.

Add it to the lineup next to the Motorola Electrify, and we’d say the carrier’s got some good options for the getting. The HTC Hero S will be available sometime next month for $200 after $100 mail-in rebate, while the Wildfire S (which will come in grey and purple) will go for $80 after rebate and the Flyer can be yours for $400 — once again, after rebate.
