RE: Kindle and other pads

My wife wants a tablet so I will watch this with interest. The Kindle Fire I believe is in color. Does it have the GPS chip in it so it can receive the sats signals? Anyone else using any tablet for navigation or navigation back up? I need one that doesn't rely on the cell towers to work. Must be able to receive the sats and than I can buy an apps like Navionics to use. My point, if I am going to spend the bucks for a tablet for my wife would like to get one that is sat. capabile as well. The salespeople in the box stores don't seem to have a clue as to that capability in their tablets.
