So, word on the street is that Amazon's got an
Android-based tablet in the works that looks like a
PlayBook and will probably be called the
Kindle Fire. But, until now, we didn't know what kind of content would be available on this new Kindle with a color screen. According to
All Things D, Bezos' baby has been blessed by Hearst, Conde Nast and Meredith publishers in time for the slate's unveiling later this week -- giving users access to magazines ranging from
GQ and
Cosmopolitan to
Car and Driver and
Wired. Evidently, Amazon's taking around a 30 percent cut (not unlike the
competition in Cupertino) of slate-based subscriptions, with small variations depending upon the magazine. With these latest leaked tidbits, we're beginning to wonder what details are left for Amazon to
reveal on Wednesday -- a little mystery adds to the anticipation, after all.
