Amazon is selling a refurbished Kindle Fire for $139 today, 3/29/2012. If you’ve been wanting to build for this device, but was waiting because of the regular price, this is the time.
As for me, mine will arrive tomorrow!

Thanks for pointing this out.

The best price on used ones I was finding on Craigslist was $150. I’m torn between getting a referbed Nook Color ($135). I don’t really wanna get a tablet because it hurts my justification for an iPad. But given it’s harder to just install APK’s on the Nook vs. the Fire and their price being effectively the same now, I went ahead and got this deal (should get it on Saturday).

I’ll use it now until June when I’m scheduled to trade an older iPhone for an EVO after I upgrade my iPhone to the next generation. Then I can sell the Kindle and maybe even turn a bit of a profit!

For me, it was for testing purposes. I’ve learned that when writing apps, testing on the hardware is a must! [import]uid: 7710 topic_id: 24077 reply_id: 97177[/import]

Ugh, and I’ve been thinking about getting a Fire for testing, but apparently they’re sold out of the refurbs now!
