Given that the New York Times is the unpaid press office for Apple and writes what it is told in return for pre-review hardware it is clear that the story is bogus. Apple is really concerned about the success of the Fire so of course the New York Times runs a spoiler. In fact the Fire is selling well and looks pretty good. It is also a third of the price of the iPad.
