Amazon adds NEW library content to PRIME from ABC Studios, Disney Channel, ABC Family...Finishing vacation today, without much access to WiFi at all.
The first new person I met opened up a small case to take a note, and I saw she had a... Kindle :-)
Peeking in and will pass on an Amazon announcement for those who don't get them - as this is another set of streaming video that will be available for the Kindle Fire.
Here's the announcement. Will do some regular blogging later tonight.
' SEATTLE, Oct 31, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
