Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

It seems that Amazon is aware that the Kindle Fire has problems connecting and staying connected to wireless networks, and has chosen to ignore the problem and continue to sell this piece of garbage. If you don't believe me, just Google or Bing the term "Kindle Fire HDX connection problems" and read the hundreds of complaints littering the tech support sites all over the internet. I gave this device to my wife as a surprise gift and she has had nothing but problems. It disconnects from our network at random times, and at other times will not connect at all, sometimes for an entire day. At the same time this is happening, I am sitting next to her using my Motorola Xoom which has a good strong (four bars), stable connection, so it is not a network problem, it is a device problem. In fact no other wireless device on our network has EVER had connection problems. My recommendation is to find some other HD tablet and wait for Amazon to get the message that they can't foist this kind of garbage on the public and expect us to buy it. In addition, though the display and sound are excellent, there is not enough difference between the Fire and other HD tablets to make it worth the aggravation and hours of dead time. The best display and sound in the world does one no good if the device sits unused because it does not work.
