Amazon ready to launch its own version of Apple TV - iPaddisti - iPaddisti

Into amazon

Into When Apple launched the first iPad in 2010 Amazon did not take it very well . First there was a long series of commercials that put compares Kindle and iPad, but gradually realized that the Amazon device was little more than an e-reader, while that of the Cupertino company a true mini computer with touch screen.

Into It ‘since then that the largest retail company in the world rivals Apple . First he created a music service to compete with iTunes, then came a real tablet to compete on equal terms with the iPad. The Kindle Fire has been so successful among consumers on a shoestring budget that the Cupertino company has decided to launch its own version of the iPad by 7.9 inches, despite the previous CEO (Editor’s note: Steve Jobs ) nix the idea.

Into Now it seems that Amazon is trying to jump into the field of streaming video , to undermine the primacy of the Apple TV. According to Businessweek now retail sales “this fall plans to introduce a dedicated device for streaming video from the Internet to the living rooms of their customers.” Anonymous sources familiar with the matter reported that the planning workshop Lab126, also based in Cupertino, is already developing the set-top box known at the time as “ Kindle TV “.

Into The sources say that the product is designed to bring TV shows and movies directly to the Amazon online viewers , without going through third-party devices. Kindle TV probably will also offer other streaming services such as YouTube , but it will be very difficult to see iTunes within this set-top boxes, as well as the rest of the Amazon channel is missing from the Apple TV.
