had mine since wednesday. look, if you want the thing to be a computer and you use loads of apps then the nexus or ipad mini are probably a better bet, but if you want an e-reader which is also a multi media tablet then like me you will love the kindle fire hd. oh, and i don’t think the nexus has such a good screen from what i have seen.
so i use as an e-reader, web browser, email manager, for skype, facebook, iplayer, twitter and a few other apps and i don’t care that much that amazon dictates what apps i can access given the low cost of the device
btw i don’t play computer games so can’t comment on its abilities in tjis area.
