Unlocked Moto G now up for pre-order on Amazon, expected to ship December 4th
Posted in: Today's Chili
A mere three days after Motorola started selling the Moto G unlocked online, giant retailer Amazon is bringing the budget-friendly smartphone to its shelves. Pre-orders are being accepted as we speak, with the 4.5-inch device being priced at $179 and $199 for the 8GB and 16GB models, respectively. Unlike with Motorola’s promise to ship the Moto G as early as December 2nd, Amazon has the arrival date listed for a couple days later, on December 4th. And if you’ve yet to determine whether this little guy is for you, then perhaps this here review can help during the decision-making process.

Pebble’s slowly been expanding the places you can buy its e-paper smartwatch, but today it’s landed at the biggest retailer of them all. Ahead of the Thankgiving celebrations, the company took to Twitter to announce the availability of the Pebble at Amazon, where you’ll now be able to buy black and red models (rocking the new software update) for $148.99. While you’ll still find them at Best Buy stores and sold by AT&T, Amazon’s promise of free next-day Prime delivery might sway you if you’re on a post-turkey impulse buying binge.

Amazon Kindle Fire HDX Rooted
Posted in: Today's Chili
For those of you who are interested in the less famous Android-powered tablets (or at least, variants of it), then you would also want to be in the know about the Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 7” and 8.9” tablet models that ship with a custom version of Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, calling it the Fire OS. What kind of goodies will Fire OS come with? For starters, it will include Amazon’s custom user interface that will allow one to interact with books, media, and apps, and it will also remain extremely integrated with Amazon’s app and digital music, movie, and book stores. If you have an inkling or are simply itching to alter the way the tablet functions, then root access is required
Just what is rooting? For starters, if one were to root an Android device, you will be able to gain access to files as well as settings which would remain off limits to users normally. This would enable you to power apps which require root permissions normally, where among them include the likes of Root Explorer and Titanium Backup. Do bear in mind that rooting your Kindle Fire HDX would in all probability void your warranty, so be aware of that before you take the plunge.
