The Kindle Fire by Amazon brings all the uses of the normal reading Kindle and combines it with apps, movies, music, and more. The Kindle Fire caught, well, fire when it was announced that the price tag would be one hundred and ninety nine dollars. The Apple iPad costs more than twice that for the Wifi only version, which the Kindle is. Also, the new Nook Color will cost fifty dollars more than the Fire although both offer almost identical specs.

Here are the three things that make the Kindle Fire very intriguing (via Dvice.com):

1. Amazon Silk

Undoubtedly, the Kindle Fire is a content-focused tablet. It will sell tons and tons of units because it has all the elements that a tablet device needs to succeed: newspapers, magazines, e-books, music, videos, apps and games. That’s great. But the Kindle Fire also has a fast Web browser — the Amazon Silk.

Silk is a cloud-accelerated Web browser that crunches all of a website’s elements with Amazon‘s powerful EC2 cloud service that a normal Web browser would normally lift on its own. The end result? Websites that load at speeds exponentially faster than with a regular browser. It’s not new stuff, Opera’s done it for a while now with its mobile browsers, but with the brawniness of Amazon’s cloud farms, it’s going to be better than any previous attempts.

2. Free Amazon Cloud Backup

Amazon’s Kindle Fire comes with 8GB of internal storage. Of that 8GB, 2GB is allocated to the OS and 6GB is usable. So, really, you only have 6GB to store your content on. Not a problem, Amazon says: the company provides free backup to the Amazon Cloud and stores most of your content such as music on it. At the moment, there’s no cap on amount of content that can be stored in its cloud. That means it’s unlimited (at least until Amazon decides to add storage caps), for now.

3. WhisperSync For Movies and TV Shows

One of the best features on the Kindle e-reader is the ability to sync bookmarks and notes automatically. Amazon realized how useful the feature was and is expanding it to movies and TV shows. If you watched half of a movie on your Kindle Fire during lunch and want to finish it up on your Internet-connected HDTV or computer when you get home, you can. WhisperSync remembers where you stopped on the Kindle Fire and resumes from there on another device. It all happens wirelessly — no sync cables. The iPad could learn a thing from this.
