This shouldn't be a polarizing issue. You can still love your Kindle Fire while wanting JB to stop inflicting on Android app users what essentially becomes a second layer of frustrating authentication variables.

That's strange. On my Asus Transformer, I've never had a problem using apps purchased from Amazon with the wifi turned off. And I turn on the Airplane Mode quite often to save battery life.
