We previously heard that Amazon’s next Kindle tablet would be launching next year, the company is reported to be working on a 10.1 inch version and an 8.9 inch version, and the 8.9 inch version is expected to be the next Kindle tablet to launch.
According to recent report by Digitimes, we should see the 8.9 inch Kindle tablet launch before he end of the second quarter of 2011, so that you put the launch at around the middle of 2012.
It isn’t clear as yet whether the tablet will also be called the Kindle Fire, or whether Amazon will choose another name for the device, as we recently heard a rumor that the next Kindle tablet may be called the Kindle Ice.
