Anyone who has purchased Kinoma Play knows that it's a very useful application, but it could be so much more.. and now it is!
-Twitter integration
-Facebook integration
-Last.FM integration
-App store
-RSS/Blog Reader
-Cross social platform sharing (share a FB photo with Twitter, a song via sms etc)
-Customizable screens and folders/lists...
The improvements are vast.

Can't wait!!
I will check it out if only it doesn't take over pics like the previous versions.
It's amazing... I've been playing with it for about 2 hours. There's a great app in the appstore called advanced settings, it lets you choose the file associations for Kinoma Play & also which folders to scan aswell
This update is so good, I think I'll be playing with this all night
OH MY GOD... This is an amazing update. SegaDC - don't hesitate - you can change the associations like owziee said.
Everything works soooo well.. and twitter? HA! Good Bye PockeTwit!!
Cool thanks guys!
edit: Unfortunetly the free edition has not been updated yet.

From what I've read, even thou Amazon is directly competing with Netflix they are interested in having it on the fire. I'm kinda surprised by that. Really thou, Mine is already pre-ordered, hopefully it arrives on the 14th. First thing I will do is try to sideload Netflix, so I wil let you know for certain when I receive it.

According to the engadget review, you can sideload apps. The caveat is that they seem to not work too well.
I can't post the link because apparently I've not posted enough. It's right on their front page though.
Email yourself the dropbox apk, then you can install apk's from your dropbox (or keep emailing yourself apk's to install). Some don't work fully, Market won't at all (darn). You'll have to also check off install 3rd party apps from the device settings.

If you grab netflix from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150
You can install that and it's working fine for me, streaming Prince of Persia now. It was stuttering a bit but then stopped after I paused it for a few seconds to catch up with buffering (I think).
Google Apps?
Does someone have the link(s) where we can grab Google apps (Gmaps, Gmail,Gtalk, etc...)?

I think we might have to get these ourselves. The biggest issue that I found was that I couldn't get google maps location services to work, maps loaded but wouldn't find me when I selected to.
Update: Gmail does not work right now (has to do with the account being set). FC
Maps works but no location.
Looks as though sideloading netflix is the only option until the official Netflix app hits the amazon store at some point. Right now it isn't in there -- hulu+ is and works pretty well.

It's there now. I just installed it.
Somebody please sideload ADW or ADW Ex and post the results.
I can confirm Netlifx is in the Amazon AppStore. You have to look for it from the device.
Also, XDA works via sideloading as you can see for those of you that don't want to re-buy the app.

I just tried LauncherPro and ADW - They come up in a list when you hit the home button, but they force close.

I side loaded adwlauncher ex. Works fine except bottom home tray stays active. The amazon fire tray.
Go launcher, facebook app, twitter are all working for me. Of all things, I can't get the USAA app to install.

After installing the google services framework apk from the gapps zip from cyanogens site, i was able to get google books and gmail working - gmail wont auto-check mail atm, but it works. Also, adw ex works for the most part - you have to drag application shortcuts to the homescreen by holding down on them from the drawer, as the popup to add an application seems to be broken.
Also sideloaded dropbox and netflix without issues, as well as beautiful widgets and the animation package for it - latest facebook apk was force-closing on me.
Has anyone gotten google reader? Where can I get gmail? Which gapps should I use? The tiny one?
