Amazon Kindle Fire HDX

So Amazon has the Kindle Fire HDX 16gb for only £99 for Black Friday Week.

Link to sale tablet.

I have been wanting a tablet for a while and I am wondering if I should just go for this one due to the amazing price. I like the specs of the tablet (don't know if 16g will be enough but I dunno), and will be primarily using it for reading articles and ebooks.

The downsides, for me, of this tablet: No gmail app although I can access Gmail in a browser, no flash so cannot do surveys and some other things. Does not support most channel's online players (does iplayer I think).

I do not plan on getting a Prime membership so one of the main selling points of this tablet (instant video) will be voided for me. But will it matter in the end?

Do I want this tablet??? Please help :)
