Amazon has denied Crunch's report that they are actively building a $99 Kindle Fire HD.
The rumor had been that the company was looking to completely disrupt the market with the low-priced tablet in 2013, which would match white box Asian OEMs yet feature Amazon's popular Kindle hardware and software.
Says an Amazon spokesperson: "It's not happening--we are already at the lowest price points possible for that hardware."
As rumored, the $99 Kindle Fire HD would include a TI processor, 1280x800 resolution and a 7-inch display.
