The device, called "Amazon Kindle," also uses a back-lit, color screen that is "two-finger multi-touch," according to TechCrunch, whose MG Siegler reports he got hold of the tablet. The report also notes that Amazon is planning to release the device in late November, rather than in October, as others have stated.
The report didn't include a picture of the device, which was described as a Design Verification Testing unit. The unit's version of Android is said to look very different from other Android tablets. It's also said to be specially designed for Amazon. The price, $250, would pit it directly against Barnes & Noble's Nook Color, which got more tablet functionality in April.
