So far you have seen the new Fire HDX and the Fire HD Kids Edition. Here is the all new Fire HD. It packs in a lot of the same features are the Fire HD Kids Edition minus the case, worry free guarantee and 1-year of FreeTime Unlimited.

As you can see, the Fire HD this year pulls out all the stops in color choices with white, cobalt, magenta, citron and the more traditional black. It packs a quad-core 1.5GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, Corning Gorilla glass, front and rear cameras and Dolby Digital audio.

Customers have a number of choices to make beyond the main specs as the new Fire HD is offered in a 6-inch or a 7-inch option (1280 x 800) with or without Amazon special offers on the lockscreen/screensaver and in 8GB or 16GB storage. That affects your price points as well. Your basic 8GB toting 6-inch variety in any color with special offers starts at $99. Same scenario with the 7-inch is $139. Go for the larger storage and no special offers you are looking at $134 for the 6-inch and $174 for the 7-inch.

No matter what you choose though you get unlimited cloud storage for all those photos for free. You also get the ability to set up family profiles, and Amazon exclusives: X-Ray, Second Screen, Amazon FreeTime, Prime Instant Video Downloads and more. Battery wise though they list it as just 8 hours of reading. That will vary depending on your use. 

Amazon is certainly pushing hard this year in the device department. Have any of the new ones caught your eye enough to buy? What will it be, the new Fire HD, the Fire HD Kids Edition or maybe the new Fire HDX? Hit the links below if the Fire HD is of interest, but don;t expect it to ship until October.
