Amazon's Fire Phone is Intriguing

I saw the demo video for the Amazon Fire Phone a few minutes ago and it looks like they have managed to meld a number of technologies together into an intriguing interface.  First, have you tried Seene?  It looks like they incorporated features and technology similar to Seene, but with multiple cameras facing you to change perspectives on the interface in real time.  Cool stuff for sure.

I'd say what I found the best target audience for this phone would be anybody who has not yet entered the smartphone market for whatever reason.  Besides the problems with AT&T coverage (I still yet don't have coverage in some key areas in Los Angeles County), the MayDay feature would be a god-send for those that are more shall we say technologically challenged?

I love that they include a full year of prime for members and non-members alike.  That's close to a $99 value in and of its own, but its not all altruistic.  Their 'firefly' feature allows users to just point the phone or listen to something to figure out what it is and link you right to the Amazon purchase page.  It's going to be way too easy to buy; as if the 1-click shopping, and barcode scanning, 2 day free shipping with prime, etc weren't enough.

The camera's optical image stabilization looks promising.  However, I'm going to hold out and see what the iPhone 6 brings to the table before I declare a winner amongst the to-be-released in a few months phones.

I'd get one, but really only if they support Verizon in the future.  Or Republic Wireless.
