Hi there,
I hope it it allright to open a new topic in here for questions.
Anyway, I am playing with the thought to get a tablet, but as far as I want to use it once in a while to read pdfs/presentations or watch a movie, I don't want to get an Acer or iPad (too expensive).
I would like to know if it is possible to put normal pdf files or even epubs (created by me) on the fire?
I guess, everything you put on has to go through Amazon.com, which I don't like.
I have read, that the device can be rooted. Does that mean I can download all market apps afterwards (I know the Fire restricts to amazon apps currently).
Is that possible to put on media to the fire, without using amazon (before and after the root)?
Is it possible to play avis or even mkv on the device? I know in the initial status it is not, but does it work with root?
And are there different versions of the tablet, which cannot be rooted?
I mean like production versions or something like that?
I saw, that the device will be on sale at Walmart next week, thats why I am especially looking for the fire.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards.
