I received my Kindle Fire yesterday and like what I see so far. The availability of apps will grow over the next few months and I can see this being a viable low cost option for consumers.

For the consumer, it’s bascially another word for ‘choice’. There’s very, very few apps out there that don’t work on Android v2.x.

OK, developers do have a slightly trickier time with fragmentation but come on, real developers have been dealing with different specced PC systems for years and even web designers have managed to develop sites that suit a range of screen sizes. Frankly a developer that can’t design for a range of screen sizes/phone capabilities is not a real developer IMO.

I accept ICS is a pretty major upgrade from Gingerbread and Honeycomb with lots of extras to cope with the new UI but surely, most of the upgrades with v2.x OS versions have been put there to keep up with improvements with hardware, not software.
