The Kindle Fire was first released last November and quickly became Amazon's best-selling item of all time. The tablet is also the best-selling Android-based tablet of all-time, although its sales numbers are far below that of the Apple iPad.
Launched just today, the Nexus 7 features a quad-core processor, all the major Google apps and a front-side camera, all of which the Kindle does not have.
The Kindle Fire 2 will keep the $199 price tag of its predecessor, while adding a camera and better resolution to the display.
Additionally, the original Kindle will drop $50 to $150, marking a price point that Amazon hopes will attract more customers.
