We still hate the playbook, but will reconsider when they put android on it and drop the price to $200.

$200 is definitely the right price point, but I can't see getting a "tablet" that doesn't have full android market.  I read that the Fire can install from other sources so it might be possible to download first and install manually but that's just another step.

I am really enjoying my Dell Streak 7. (which I bought for $200)

My mom wants a tablet so I'm keeping my eyes out.

Edit: If the UI is friendly enough it still might be a good option for the somewhat technophobic. I haven't decided if it's a pro or a con that the device is geared wholly toward selling content on Amazon.

It's already been rooted, so the android marketplace will probably be added before long.

Not that I would care.  Since Amazon launched their own marketplace and their free app of the day, I don't get anything from the google market anymore.
