From
iReaderReview. As a Palm Pre WebOS user I'm very excited not so much for a Kindle WebOS) reading app (though I look forward it) but this may mean there will FINALLY be an Audible app for my Pre.

Closing Thoughts – Kindle must be booming
45 positions opened in the last 4 days. 14 people in the Kindle Apps for PC, Mac, etc. team. A separate team just for Cross-Platform work. Lab 126 (the Kindle Team) is beginning to sound like a 1,000 person company.
Kindle for WebOS. Kindle for Windows Mobile. A ‘Kindle for iOS’ position. A Kindle for Tablets team. It seems like the various Kindle Apps are a runaway hit and Amazon considers them a vital part of the Kindle’s future.
My favorite three finds -
1. This is a recently formed team tasked with delivering a new, customer-facing Kindle program. A new, customer-facing Kindle program sounds very intriguing.
2. There’s a Kindle Education & Enterprise division.
3. Kindle Platform team also handles MP3 downloads and Video on Demand.
Amazon probably has a lot of Kindle surprises up its sleeve. It’ll be interesting to see when it unveils them and what they are. Perhaps Amazon even has a brand new Kindle or a Kindle Tablet slated to arrive soon.
