iPad 2 Or Kindle Fire?
Should i get a Kindle Fire or save up the extra money and just get an iPad 2? I know that a iPad 2 is $300 more but is it worth it to just spend the extra money?

Hello teddy bear, iPad is twice as expensive, twice as heavy, and much less portable on the go although it has two cameras, larger screen, and 500K apps/games in iTunes store. I have Nook Tablet and I also checked out Kindle Fire at BestBuy - Nook is much better in my opinion, it's like day and night in terms of device performance. Double the RAM of Nook Tablet definitely has a lot of performance impact on how quickly apps load and how quick the device is overall. Everyone who actually held Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet in their hands noted that Nook's screen is much better and brighter besides being laminated for reduced glare (not on Kindle or iPad). Nook Tablet is $224 if sign up for Barnes & Noble membership. 16 GB Nook's content capacity plus 32 GB via microSD card vs. 8 GB capacity of Kindle Fire with no expansion slot IS a big deal as portable tablets are all about doing things on the go. Reading 11.5 hours battery life and 9 hours of video playback time vs. 8 hours for reading and 7.5 hours of video playback on Kindle Fire. Nook has microSD slot, microphone for Skype and physical volume controls on the side (neither is on Kindle).
Amazon's own web site has hundreds (almost 1400 so far) of reviews of Kindle Fire's new owners that gave it 1 or 2 star reviews because of choppy/laggy experience they got from this underpowered device. All pro reviewers on the web clearly voiced that Nook Tablet is a much better device with superior performance compared to Kindle Fire.

It's totally worth it. Facetime, apps, movies, music, books, games, video editing, and internet. It's a much better product than the Kindle Fire. It's worth it because after you get a kindle fire, you are probably going to wish you got an iPad.

iPad for sure. It does much more than the Kindle and you can still read Kindle books on it using the Kindle app for iPad.
