First off, you don't go and make a donation to a campaign like that with NOTHING to back up its legitimacy. Sure it might be backed by a company who'll give you back the money if they don't meet their goal, but what stops them from running off with your money if they do? I'm not saying that KFD would do that, but honestly, it surprises me that they've almost got $700+ donations this far.
I understand that it takes a large amount of time and dedication to research and build an application like this, being that I've been researching for the past three years and am now putting an app out there myself, but this seems like an idea that can go nowhere simply because of Amazon's non-existent APIs that would be needed to support it.
The next Kindle Fire will have collections, that is a FACT. There is no way Amazon would ignore something like that when it's been requested since day one. The KF1 will most definitely get that update once it comes out too.
It amazes me how this idea with no mockups, no video of how the app would function, and no information on how they're going to accomplish this in the first place is getting so much attention. $5,000? Which app developer are they using? This isn't exactly an accessory...
