) to be merged into one inbox.
Content formats supported are Kindle Format 8 (KF8), Kindle Mobi, TXT, PDF, DOC, DOCX, JPEG, GIF and a lot of others. Why it is an innovative product? And what is the Amazon’s strategy with the Kindle Fire? Amazon tries to surf on the Kindle success by launching this product way under the market price. Amazon is willing to sell its core tablet device at a loss (one-quarter its list price) and at painfully low margins because it is an efficient point-of-sale storefront. They have 18 million songs, books, movies and television programs.
The surprisingly low $199 price point will especially undercut smaller competitors and force more affordable hardware and software economics-even at Apple. Amazon founding CEO Jeff Bezos, said that the Kindle Fire is “a service” that provides “seamless integration” to all things Amazon for the world’s largest online retailer. That represents a unique pipeline for marketers, as well as content providers, wanting to connect with consumers on very specific fronts, or any interest. Marketers and content providers can follow consumers in all their movements on the website and adapt all the marketing.
Amazon’s Kindle Fire strategy is designed to bring consumers closer to their main activity, selling things. The Kindle Fire is pre-loaded with a new AmazonLocal daily deals and services which is a good way to stimulate connections between buyers and sellers. Amazon is linked with NBC Universal, Twentieth Century Fox, CBS and others to become a video service like Netflix. Kindle Fire’s alignment with the Android operating system also puts Amazon in line to do more with Google and its YouTube video service to become a dominant video streaming player.
