The Amazon Kindle Fire tablet players like Samsung or Apple

The Amazon Kindle Fire has been much talked about because Amazon is taking a “good enough” approach to competing with established tablet players like Samsung or Apple. Many prospect Kindle Fire buyers would not spend $300 or more to get a high-end tablet, so Amazon is not really trying to steal share, but it tries to make the tablet market bigger, faster.

1GHz Dual-core TI OMAP SoC (same as the Playbook)
512MB RAM
8GB of storage (no microSD)
WIFI 2.4GHz B/G/N
No 3G, no Bluetooth

First, I’m glad that Amazon chose the dual-core OMAP processor. It worked great on the Blackberry Playbook, and this is certainly a good choice. 512MB of RAM is not a lot, but probably good enough if there aren’t too many background apps, and I think that it will suffice for the Kindle Fire’s purpose.

The 8GB of storage may be more problematic, especially for those who are interested in video. Although that’s plenty for books and alright for photos, local video files can consume space much quicker and this could be an issue down the road. Actually, a regular mix of Music, Photos and Videos could strain the storage capacity quickly. Granted, it’s also a “cloud device” that can stream stuff from the web, but there are cases where you don’t have access to the network.

CloudFTP Wi-Fi connectivity to camera or hard drive

If you want to access photos and recorded video, just make sure the CloudFTP is connected to the camera in order to transfer it to the computer without having to deal with a cable, and how about this – making your collection of downloaded videos game to everyone else in the house by creating a wireless file server of sorts? There is even the option of developing an ad hoc connection to a smartphone so that you can access or transfer content on a CloudFTP-connected hard drive.Hopefully Sanho hits the $100,000 they’re requesting from the public over at Kickstarter.

The CloudFTP is a USB-powered gadget that provides a Wi-Fi connection for devices that don't include them. Plug in any USB device—cameras, flash drives, card readers, etc—and the CloudFTP will establish a connection with your existing network and wirelessly transfer files from the device. You can move your files to any computer on the network or upload them directly to a cloud storage locker like Dropbox or iCloud. And in the event that there isn't an existing network available, the CloudFTP can create its own secure ad-hoc network with up to three devices.
