{pf id:80964 size:small} Refurbished Kindle Fire 7" Android Tablet for $110 + free shipping

All4Cellular via eBay offers the refurbished Kindle Fire 7" Android Tablet for $109.95 with free shipping. That $20 under our September mention of a refurb and the lowest total price we've seen. It's also $50 under what Amazon charges direct. The Kindle Fire runs a heavily-modified version of Google's Android OS and sports a dual core processor and a 7" 1024x600 IPS display. It has 8GB of internal storage, although the intent is to stream most content directly from Amazon Cloud Storage. It also lacks 3G support (Wi-Fi is the only option). No warranty information is provided. Also of note is the Samsung Galaxy 7" 2GB for $130.

With free shipping, that's $0.03/GB, $20 under our mention from two weeks ago, and the lowest total price we've seen for a 1.5TB drive since last October. It's also a current price low by $37. It runs at 5900 rpm and features a 64MB cache.
