Why I want a GAMING Tablet

Before I get into the details of the Amazon Kindle Touch or the Fire, I have to let you know about something about reality.

I do not see anyone in coffee shops sitting playing games on a Sony PSP or Nintendo DS.
What do I see when I look about a coffee house?

I see lap top computers.....I see smart phones......and yes.....I see people enjoying their tablets.

So...I too want to be able to sit down and enjoy a tablet playing games on that tablet. 
So, why haven't I bought a tablet yet?

There's the APPLE IPADs which over 27 million have bought so far...But, alas....I never bought the Apple iPADs because they do not have Adobe Flash capability.  That is a road block for me big time as I have a subscription to POGO.com that is reoccurring annually.

I NEED MY ADOBE FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What else do I need?  I need storage.....lots of it!!!  I've seen that IPADs have 16 GB versions and
32 GB versions.   32 GB would suffice....maybe...

But what if you have a game company that wants to port their game to a 32 GB tablet and that game so happens to be "WITCHER 2:  Assassins of Kings."

According to IMPULSE's statistics sheets for this title, the installation of just this 1 game is a whopping 35 GB.

*YOWZERS!*

That pushes me to the LAPTOP option....  But LAPTOPS weigh a lot....are bigger thus taking up so much space....they aren't user friendly... You have to open the case and when you are done close the case.... Depending on operating system you could sit and wait for minutes for the laptop to boot up.

There's tons of junk on these laptops that I do not need!!!

So.. I WANT A GAMING TABLET!!!!

That brings me to the Amazon Fire.

A) 8 GB       : *YIKES* That may be ok storage for books and music and streaming movies. Beyond that you are going to be hurting trying to dnload super advanced gaming titles. Angry Birds is easy enough you can have thousands of angry birds.... But, you can't have a WITCHER 2 mega game.

B) Blue Tooth Joysticks:    Does it come with any?  Sure I can use touch screen style controlls I guess or those funky iPAD joysticks that attach to the iPAD and look like old school atari joysticks.
Or I could actually have some BLUE TOOTH JOYSTICKS that are comfortable to hold in the palm of your hand.

Joysticks aren't a big deal in terms of space cause they are in your hand and wireless... Set your TABLET down....Set your COFFEE down...and let the fun begin!

C) EAR PHONES: Pretty sure it has a port for ear phones. That's a must. I can't have my Video Game swearing up a storm, "Johnny!!  You must kill those Alien *&^% *&^%!!!" That would sure get a lot of attention in a coffee shop.  Imagine playing DUKE NUKEM FOREVER with the volume full blast!

D) GAME specific APP Store:  I soooooo badly want an App Store that only has games in it.
I hate scrolling past "Ninja Mascot" ..."Ninjutsu Tips," "Ninja Ringtone Songs."  or whatever...when you only want to dnload "Ninja Gaiden."

Have a menu in your APP store that can strip out the MUSIC, the Non-Game related Applications, and so on.  That works too.

So.....sorry... But I looked and looked and looked and looked for a tablet worth buying.

I want one for BOOKS and GAMES and beyond that I don't care what else it does.

Give me a Tablet that is excellent to read BOOKS with and one that is TOP QUALITY GAME MACHINE that plays TOP QUALITY titles that are currently available and has enough internal storage to handle future Tablet Games that may reach the heights of WITCHER 2....

Give me that....and I will buy your tablet.

AMAZON? sorry.... I am not your customer.
