Online retailer Amazon has launched a new tablet computer to rival Apple's best-selling iPad.
Two versions of the machine, the Kindle Fire and Kindle Fire HD, were unveiled at a press conference in the United States.
UK consumers will be able to buy the HD version, which has a seven-inch screen and was previously only sold in the US, for £159, while the second model is priced at £129.
