With that level of 3D camera tracking I wonder if it can accurately use your face for authentication. I think the most interesting thing about this is that Amazon is trying do something different. While they have innovated eReaders, the Kindle Fire line is about creating a good value version of what everyone else is doing.

I thought the Kindle Fires were considered among the lamest of the Android tablets primarily because they're not real Android but some Amazon bastardization, and the tablets are sold at a loss like most things Amazon has been doing to drive revenue the last few years, with the belief that some day, they can stop spending more than they take in and keep some profits.
Anyway, about the 3D phone. 3D turned out to be a completely worthless gimmick for TV. What's it going to do for a phone? Whatever the case, I expect Amazon will sell it at a loss for a long time, and it will be yet another mediocre product whose sales numbers they will never reveal.
