Kindle for iPad started out with its bookstore via the web browser, to get round the "sell content within their apps" limitation. I assume this is still the case. Sony should have known better than to try an in-app store.
I agree that "access to purchases" is new, and if it is correct then Kindle for iThing is dead. Amazon would have to replace it with a variant of Kindle for the Web. I doubt that it is true though, because there would be a mass migration of apps to HTML5 and/or Android.
