The Amazon Android tablet that’s been rattling around the rumour mill for a while now has been teased again by Amazon boss Jeff Bezos. Speaking to Consumer Reports he gnomically muttered that those of us awaiting an Amazon Android tablets should “stay tuned”. But, typically, he had to go and muddy the water…

In terms of any other product introductions, I shouldn’t answer.”
Though the Amazon CEO is being coy, there’s loud chatter from the supply chains that Amazon has been attempting to acquire thousands of LCD screens. It’s not crazy to believe that Amazon will out something later in the year. Now it’s got the Amazon Android App Store, a tablet just makes sense.
