Does the New iPad Overheat too Many Times?
A number of user complains have started to arise in some forums. The intolerable excessive heat probably comes from the using of bigger battery capacity, occurs notably when internet connection is on the run.
The overheating generates from the bottom-left side of the iPad, and in some cases, the iPad is forced to shutdown and displays a notification says that iPad needs to cool down before you can use it.
To power its advanced Retina Display and A5X dual-core processor, while also to keep delivering the 10 hour of usage time, the new iPad increases its battery capacity heavily. From only 6,944 mAh on iPad 2 to 11,666 mAh on board. This is what probably caused the overheating.
Apple has yet to release its comment upon this matter.
3 Million iPads in 3 Days

Why The Kindle Fire and Why The iPad
Amazon Kindle Fire, the 7-inch tablet, has many differences compared to the iPad, in appearance, features, and also price. But the Kindle Fire is still considered to be one of the strongest competitor for the iPad, the tablet market champ. Why?
The Kindle Fire's low price shakes up the tablet market. Amazon offers the Kindle Fire at only U.S. $ 199. While the iPad is now starting from U.S. $ 499 to U.S. $ 829, depending on storage capacity and 3G capabilities.
The Kindle Fire is considered favorable for parents, as a gift for their children. However, the price is certainly not the major consideration here, since many other tablets are also sold much cheaper than the iPad.
Screen Size and Dimensions
This difference is clearly visible here. The Kindle Fire's screen size is only 7-inch, while the iPad has a 9.7-inch. The smaller screen size makes the Kindle Fire's low price appropriate.
The Amazon tablet is also twice lighter than the iPad. Smaller size and lighter weight make the Kindle Fire easier and more comfortable to carry anywhere. However, small screen size can be a problem for some tablet users. 9.7-inch is obviously more enjoyable for watching videos or playing games.
Features and Specifications
Of course the Kindle Fire's less price means less features. No built-in camera, therefore there would be no video chat and video recording capabilities. Also it doesn't have microphone, therefore there would be no voice chat and voice recording capabilities.
The Kindle Fire only has WiFi connectivity, hence with no WiFi network around, don't expect to be able to browse and download content from Amazon.
Of storage capacity, the Kindle Fire only has 8GB, while the smallest capacity of the iPad is 16GB. The small storage capacity makes users rely a lot on Amazon's cloud-computing feature, which is free for Kindle Fire's Owners.
As for the battery life, the Kindle Fire only lasts up to 8 hours. Compare with the iPad which can last up to 10 hours.
Apps
The Kindle Fire runs Android Operating System, makes it available to access more than 250K apps in Google Play. The iPad can access more than 425K apps in AppStore. BUT, Kindle Fire also has special access to Amazon Cloud Drive to download numerous contents from Amazon. This gives more added value to this tablet.
That's why Kindle Fire's start screen features a set of digital shelves, looks different than other android tablets. The shelves showcase various contents from Amazon. At least, Amazon provides 11 000 movies and television shows ready to be streamed over the Kindle Fire. At Kindle Fire launching event, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos was very proud to show some video content, music, ebook, and games that can be downloaded from the Kindle Fire.
Conclusion
Kindle Fire presence provides a new alternative to tablet users, who have different needs. With its cheap price, it may be understandable if the Kindle Fire has some flaws in its features. But Amazon's rich content, with movies, ebooks, as well as games, makes the Kindle Fire a really good option.

Duo Kindle Fire Challenge the New iPad
Amazon seems to really want to compete with Apple. After planning to develop its 10-inch tablet, Amazon will also renew its 7-inch tablet. Amazon Kindle Fire is going to launch two models at once in mid 2012.
For these new tablets, as reported by Digitimes, Amazon is likely going to use touch screen panel made by Wintek and TPK Holdings. The production process will be entrusted to Quanta Computer and Foxconn Electronics. The latter also manufactures Apple's iPad, located in China. While Quanta Computer is the manufacturer of the current Kindle Fire, and also Barner & Noble's Nook tablet.
The current Amazon Kindle Fire tablet has been sold successfully in the market. Some observers agreed that Kindle Fire would be a direct competitor to Apple's iPad. Moreover, Amazon's success also viewed, by some observers, as a great temptation for apple to create a similar sized iPad, but slightly larger with 7.85-inch screen size.
Amazon's strength as the biggest online store site will be a competitive advantage in promoting and marketing its tablet compared to Apple's iPad.

What Galaxy Note 10.1 Can and New iPad Can't
Apple just held its big event, introducing the new iPad last Wednesday in San Fransisco. Samsung responds aggressively by publishing a grid, e-mailed to the press, directly comparing its Galaxy Note 10.1 with the new iPad. On the grid, the South Korean firm descibes the specifications and detailed features that show why Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is better than 'The New iPad'.
Samsung emphasizes on the Galaxy Note 10.1's ability to run two applications at a time. Samsung also showed that using its stylus, which is called S-Pen, gives more precision advantage, compared with just your fingers. Its unique S-Pen also has multiple pressure sensitivity level, while iPad only detects standard stylus pressure level. In addition, 10.1 Note Galaxy also has a lighter weight and slimmer body.

"IPAD" Prevents New iPad Sales in China
The long dispute between a Chinese company Proview with Apple, is going to be a big problem for Apple to sell its recently unveiled iPad.
Proview Technology (a subsidiary of Taiwan's Proview International) admitted to have sent a letter to vendors and dealers in China to immediately stop selling the iPad. "Anyone who does these mean in direct violation of company patents. We will not hesitate to take legal action," said Proview Technology in the letter.
This is one of Proview's strategies to put more pressure on Apple over the China market. In its lawsuit, Proview demands Apple to pay 1.6 billion U.S. dollars for breaching its trademark. Originally, Proview's IPAD is an All in One PC, developed since 1998 and marketed in 2000. IPAD stands for Internet Personal Access Device
Apple defends itself by stating that Apple had bought worldwide rights to the iPad trademark from Proview International in 2009. Proview contends the sale excluded the mainland Chinese trademark. A Chinese court is considering an appeal by Apple of an earlier ruling against its claim to the trademark.
