Amazon look set to continue the success of its Kindle eReader by launching a full colour tablet – if rumour is to be believed – in the near future, with further word slipping out that the gadget will now support streaming movies.
A consumer research company has made this latest claim, suggesting Amazon’s own free streaming movie service will be coming to a tablet near you very soon through the gadget expected to be called “Hollywood” – a name which may suggest that the rumour could in fact be true.
Speculation currently suggests that the 10-inch tablet (a 4” step up from current Kindle model) will feature Google platform Android Honeycomb, access to the app store and Cloud Locker – also the fully stocked Kindle books library
Expect “Hollywood” to arrive in stores towards the end of the year, with Amazon’s streaming movie service on board, free-of-charge, from the tablet’s launch.
