Fire HD 8 then likely. -- nm - Shaun Feb 9, 09:43 14
- OMG!!! fire 8 comes in yellow!!! -- nm - amanda Feb 9, 09:51
- Yup. Same guts, I think. And in the $50-60 range. -- nm - Mop Feb 9, 09:43 12
  - But you can't get XXXXXXXXX on the Fire HD. What is X? - JaxSean Feb 9, 09:45 11
    - Yeah, the Fire tablets run special Amazon software, but you can sideload traditional Android stuff. -- nm - Mop Feb 9, 09:51
    - You can't get a generic Android OS on the Fire HD. -- nm - Ender Feb 9, 09:49 5
      - is this a problem for me if I am just streaming video and sending the occasional email? -- nm - amanda Feb 9, 09:54 4
        
        Gmail app will not work on Fire tablet. -- nm - sycor Feb 9, 10:03 3
        
        It will with really trivial jailbreaking. -- nm - spamlet, farrrr from an adequate poster Feb 9, 10:13 2
        
        Really? I side loaded Play and the other google stuff. Gmail will not run, it keeps crashing on the Fire I got my dad. - sycor Feb 9, 10:16 1
        
        Did you install the right version of Google Play Services? - spamlet, farrrr from an adequate poster Feb 9, 10:19
    - I had to download the Google play store (Ender played a link that showed me how) in order to get the Vudu app. I have the Fire 8 and I'm happy with it - kelly Feb 9, 09:48 2
      - I don't think I would watch vudu. HBO Go, though, maybe. so this is good to know ("will need ender's help"). thanks. -- nm - amanda Feb 9, 09:50 1
        
        You just have to Google "play store on Fire HD" and there will be links on how to do this. - spamlet, farrrr from an adequate poster Feb 9, 10:16
    - It's possible to sideload the Google Play store, iirc. -- nm - Shaun Feb 9, 09:47
