Is there a way to run the Silk browser in the Kindle Fire emulator?

We want to use the Silk browser to test some HTML5 code we have written. We have installed the Kindle Fire package in Eclipse through the Android SDK manager and have configured an AVD. However, the browser that runs in the emulator does not seem to be the Silk browser. (The user agent doesn't have "Silk" or "Silk-accelerated" in it.) Anyone have any suggestions?

At this time, Kindle Tablet emulators do not include the Silk browser. Please keep up with our blog for any updates on this. http://www.amazonappstoredev.com/
