We previously heard that Amazon were working on a new streaming device, the Amazon FireTube which is said to be a set top box for Amazon content.
The device was rumored to launch last year, although back in October, we heard it wouldn’t launch until 2014, and now Amazon has sent out invites to a press event later this month which will launch a new product that will “deliver Digital Media” in a unique way, potentially disrupting the entertainment industry.”
The Amazon FireTube is said to be a set top box that will deliver Amazon content to your HDTV, the device will apparently run Amazon’s FireOS.
The Amazon FireTube is said to also run apps as well as streaming content, and it will apparently have some sort of tie in with Amazon’s Kindle tablets.
As yet there are not very many details on what sort of hardware the Amazon FireTube will come with, as soon as we get some more details, and some actual pictures of the device, we will let you guys know.
