A:AnswerBeth, this tablet comes preloaded with a lot of great apps from Amazon including Kindle, App store, a calculator, mail, calendar, and a free trial subscription to The Washington Post. The Fire HD also uses Amazon Silk, a great web browser.
A:AnswerThen buy it in the store. The two businesses seem to be completely different. I find prices are usually cheaper online, but maybe this time it's due to store having more than they want on hand and are continuing at the sale price till inventory gets to level they want. I always check both store and online prices to see which is less. Online may be less but you may have to pay shipping.
A:AnswerYes I was able to move everything from my moms second generation to this one without having to start over from scratch. It made set up a breeze for my 68 year old mom.
A:AnswerHello Mag, if you are talking about using your Hotspot from your mobile phone to connect the Kindle Fire, if you have a mobile phone carrier that offer hotspot as part of your plan then yes you can use your hotspot to connect the Kindle Fire. It's just like if you have internet at home and you are using wifi at home it works the same way if you have hotspot as part of your plan. if you are not sure if hotspot is part of your mobile plan I would highly recommend that you check with your carrier, you don't want to think that you have it and don't because it will cost you dearly.
Good Luck
