But then again, why would Amazon trade an existing ecosystem, with apps already developed, installed user base, just for a new and unknown system?
Well, they could use Alien Dalvik / OpenMobile ACL, for which the only massive hurdle is to get users access to the Google Play Store (impossible without actual android?) or (the RIM approach) get apps re-submitted to another store like ... the Amazon App Store ... wait a minute! I might be onto something here!
