[Electronics-Talk] amazon fire tv

[Chris G]

Ashley,

The Amazon Fire TV is not a TV.  It is a little streaming box that 
connects to your current TV with an HDMI cable. Just like the Apple TV 
is not a TV.


The Fire TV is accessible, it uses VoiceView, Amazons screen reader.

You need WIFI and it is easy to set up.

You can also use netflix on it as well.

> Is this device a smart tv? Does it stream other content such as netflix or does it only get amazon channels?
> How large are they? I have low vision, so I’m curious about this.
