Kindle Fire HD Tablet

Amazon’s Kindle Fire HD Tablet (used – acceptable) is currently being offered for only $53.30 shipped, today only. Most tablet displays are made up of two pieces of glass – an LCD on the bottom and a touch sensor on the top, separated by an air gap. With an air gap, light reflects off of every surface as it passes through from the front, creating multiple distracting reflections that reduce display contrast.
