Having to restart it to watch Netflix, or the level of something like burn in on the screen when I switch screens isn't. Android sucks. Whenever I open the web it restores a tab to a site I closed out of 3 months ago. Always.
Then my company switched from the Inspire4G to the iPhone. Now all I do on the kindle is read, my iPhone is better for everything else. Including watching movies on the way smaller screen.
I would get an iPad over the Fire for everything I'd do on it except read. For that, the size and backlit screen (while in bed) make the Fire perfect for me.

When I bought my Kindle I specifically picked the $99 black and white version. I want a device that just reads books, nothing more. For that I think it's great. Much lighter than the Fire and the battery lasts for weeks.
If I want to surf the web, I'll use my laptop, thank you very much.
