I am thinking that we could migrate a full-fledged browser into Kindle to support much more functions. Like tabs, downloads and run apps.

We could call it kindber (kindle browser)

I recently tried to tethering my Kindle 3g to access free internet from my laptop. The method showed online can only support http access from your laptop which makes it a useless when you comes to websites need more secure https access. like shopping, banking, email and facebook login.

After I dived into this problem, I finally succeed to make my laptop access https and http altogether.

Then I come up with the idea of make kindle as a browser which amazon didn't want to give us.

We could start with mobile-version of firefox.

I have created a project in googlecode:
