Anyone have personal experience with the Amazon Fire phone?

I have an old iPhone and am seriously considering the $.99 deal.

1. What carrier do you want and which iphone model do you have? n/t

2. AT&T and an 8 gig iPhone 4 n/t

3. Have you ever used an Android-based phone before?

The Fire phone runs locked down, limited version of Android and has gotten mixed reviews and
apparently few sales.

I see AT&T will be offering a trade in program for older iPhones:

4. No, but I like their commercials with the tech-savvy kids.

Not enough to buy one though. I am considering that Samsung, but for now my old LG is doing just fine.

5. I had an iPhone 3GS for almost 5 years.

I broke down this summer and got a Samsung Galaxy S5--I LOVE IT. The main reasons for the change were Android and a bigger device that would be easier to read. I do miss some of the iOS programs, but I can deal with that.

I don't know much about the Fire except what I've read. It hasn't sold very well.
