Have you heard the news?  Amazon has expanded its family by way of a new product.

They named it, “Kindle Fire.”

For some of us, we are now relieved to be able to get the discount Kindle e-reader we wanted last week for only $79!  We have even started looking behind the couch and in our glove box for neglected gift cards in hopes of making the Kindle price even cheaper by exchanging the unused gift card balance for Amazon.com gift cards through Plastic Jungle.

(Did you know you can purchase a Kindle from select retail stores?  That means you use discounted Target gift cards from Plastic Jungle to get an even deeper discount on the Kindle.)

Others of us want to get our hands on the new Amazon Kindle Fire and touch all of its features for ourselves. But until the November 15, 2011 release date, the closest we can get to a Kindle Fire is to pre-order it on Amazon – which means we still have time to sell our unused gift cards on Plastic Jungle for Amazon.com gift cards AND now is a great time to order discount gift cards for Kindle retailers – including Target discount gift cards.

Then there are some of us who like to cautiously approach new technology with a water test.  In other words, we prefer to wait and see how the new Kindle Fire holds its heat.

Got a tablet so I can update my wish list, anyone?
