New Amazon FireTV supports 4K
Amazon has announced a new version of their FireTV media player that supports 4K, voice control, 802.11ac WiFi, improved performance specs etc. for the same price of US$99.

I guess that explains why the FireTV has been out of stock on Amazon US for weeks now.
It's the first of the major media players to offer 4K, since Roku and Apple wimped out on that feature this year. But of course you could already get Android boxes like the NVidia Shield with 4K support - for twice the price.
Still not offered for sale in Canada though, so you'd have to buy it in the U.S.
