Amazon hasn't forgotten about those hot little Kindle Fire tablets it's been selling like fire noodles! The retailer turned device maker has refreshed its budget tablet line-up by presenting the 8GB Fire ($50) in three new colors, introducing a new 16GB model ($70), and revamping the Fire Kids Edition.

The new color choices are blue, magenta, and tangerine – lively and hip, just right for the youngsters whose first tablet will be a Kindle Fire. The 16GB model also gets the new paintjobs, so those with $20 more to spare won't be missing out on the fun. As for the Kids Edition, Amazon has added a lime green case with soft corners to it and increased the internal storage to 16GB. This configuration costs $120, and is also available with blue and pink cases. The 8GB model is still up for sale, priced at $99.

All tablets feature 7-inch displays, a modest but functional quad-core processor, back and front cameras and microSD slots for memory expansion. And just in case you don't know, Amazon will let you buy the $50 Kindle Fire in bulk, at $250 for a six-pack. Now that's a tablet the whole family can enjoy!
