From that link see this quote:

"It is more likely that Amazon will make the Kindle free to Amazon Prime subscribers and then make their money selling ebooks rather than introduce a full-featured tablet," Baker said. "They don't have an app store yet and admittedly that could change things, but for now I just don't think this makes sense."

It was stated in a discussion about whether Amazon would compete with Apple's iPad 2 bu Gartner analyst Van Baker.
