Was Amazon's Kindle Fire just a flash in the pan? - Apple 2.0 - Fortune Tech

Was Amazon's Kindle Fire just a flash in the pan? - Apple 2.0 - Fortune Tech: "FORTUNE -- Thursday was bad-news day for Amazon's (AMZN) Kindle line of tablets and e-readers.
IDC released first quarter tablet sales data that had Kindle Fire shipments falling from 4.8 million in the Christmas quarter to less than 750,000 units last quarter. "Kindle Fire Shipments Fizzle" was the headline on AllThingsD.
E Ink Holdings, the sole supplier of black-and-white screens for Amazon's Kindle e-readers, reported that its "major customer" bought way too many e-ink screens in Q4 2011. As a result, it ordered "almost nothing" in Q1 2012."
