Amazon Fire Phone: 8 Fire Related Things To Consume On Your Amazon Fire Device

Amazon officially announced the Amazon Fire Phone Wednesday, completing a family of devices that will compete directly with both Apple and Google. With a phone, a tablet, a TV set-top box, and content services like Prime Instant Video, Prime Music and the Kindle Store, Amazon is hoping to become the only company a person needs. In sticking with Amazon’s naming scheme, here are eight selections of books, music and videos that you can consume on your Amazon Fire devices.
