Amazon tablet is totally bound to the website of the company and therefore it does not offer access to the Android market, but to their own application store - Amazon Appstore for Android. The price of the tablet was announced as unprecedented, lower than the estimated cost of 250 US Dollars, the same price as the competitive Nook Color of Barnes & Noble.

The technical characteristics of Kobo Vox are close to those of the Amazon tablet and the price of the device is the same as Kindle Fire. In contrast, however, Kobo Vox will provide full access to Android Market, which means that Amazon customers will be able to use Vox thanks to the application Kindle App. In addition, users who prefer the Canadian tablet can use Nook App, Aldiko, and all other programs for electronic books reading in the operating system Android.

The name of the tablet comes from the Latin "Vox Populi" - "Voice of the people" and Kobo Vox has emerged as the first multimedia device, integrated with the new Facebook Ticker (which allows users to see real time everything their friends post in social network – games they are playing, music they are listening, movies they are watching and etc.) and the upcoming Facebook Timeline - new visual profile of accounts that allows tracking of user activity over the years.

We see that the two new proposals, Kindle Fire and Kobo Vox, are more than worthy competition for Nook Color, which until recently was the only specialized tablet with a color screen and Android operating system. What will the competitors offer us? Apple prepares its iPad 3 which has a larger screen, but significantly higher price. On the other hand, the market is flooded with 7" Tablet models with Android, but they have higher prices than the ones mentioned in this article, but those tablets are multifunctional, without any software or hardware limitations.

The choice is very big and perhaps a bit difficult. However, if you are a passionate reader and want to carry your books in one compact device, e-readers are the right thing for you. Now with color screen and more features!
