If you’ve been umming and ahhing over Whether to buy the Kindle Fire tablet, Amazon this latest sale Could sway you. Until March 4, the retailer is slashing the price of all its tablets by 20 per cent. It does these kinds of sales quite often, but this is the biggest price cut yet.

Prime has gone up, Which Amazon is less keen to publicize. It’s now ? 79 for a year instead of 49 ? – that price includes the cost of Prime Instant Video.
