Bezos did figure this out from the start, again the plan is to make money both from the devices and from the ebooks and treat them as separate businesses and revenue streams.
He's also said he would allow Kindle on "other devices" as long as they're willing to add Whispernet support. I can't imagine any ebook readers would accept that, so I'd assume from a practical perspective this will mean Kindle apps on more smartphones and, eventually, for OS X and possibly even Linux.
