No Plug?
I like this product and using it with Amazon Prime.
However there are a few fatal flaws that should be shared upfront:
1. No Plug - Who would sell a rechargeable electronic product that doesn't include a power cord? You have to buy the wall plug separately for another $10 to $20 bucks! Shame on them.
2. Ads?- What? I paid full price for this product, why am I being inundated with Ads and Paid Suggestions for other products?
I feel deceived; Amazon should have called this Product Kindle Fire HD with Ads like they do with their other readers! My toddler is frustrated with pressing icons which look like apps but are actually ads to purchase other products.
Since this is my device and not Amazon's I should have a way of turning off ads and "Suggestions" without having to pay for the privilege.
They should spell out upfront that this is an Ad supported product.
3. No YouTube or YouTube App? - Why can't I install the YouTube App? It's only the most popular video service on the web.
