These three steps: In the Android SDK Manager window, from the Tools menu, click Manage Add-on Sites. In the Add-on Sites dialog box, select the User Defined Sites tab, and then click New. Enter the following URL in the Add Add-on Site URL dialog box: http://kindle-sdk.s3.amazonaws.com/addon.xml

Whoa! If the ONLY thing supported by the SDK / ADK "addon" of Kindle is that USB-interface, then HOW can we select it as a device in our IDEs? Where, precisely, do we get the AVD or definition now? Tim...

You can't since there is no emulator available for Kindle devices at this moment. You need to test your app in real devices.
