Summary: Since it�s our job here at ZDNet to present you with all sides of technology, in this article I�m going to spotlight some of the Kindle Fire�s shortcomings.
The Kindle Fire is going to sell boat loads. For the price, it's a bargain. And many of those shortcomings aren't really that damning. Exchange support can be had in the app store. I guess the author was too lazy to simply download an app. Bluetooth? How many actually use that? Not many trust me. It's more utilized on the smartphone. The other stuff was just 'meh'. Ok so it doesn't have 3g/4g. What did you expect for the price? And the author wanted tons of storage to boot. So they must give you $400 worth of hardware for $200, right? What an utter dingbat!
