You can access the full Amazon website using the web browser, but I was under the impression that the built-in Kindle store was separate, since it's fixed-purpose. They do not behave in the same way, e.g. the store has pages which are switched between with the turn page buttons, and you do not ever scroll as you do in the browser. The store also renders in exactly the same way on the Kindle 2 and 3, despite the different web browser. but differently on the Kindle 1, to suit its navigation control. But I could be wrong, perhaps they do share code.
Of course, it could pass some other kind of authentication over HTTP rather than using cookies, I suppose.
