It does not work. The [N] footnote reference is displayed in blue, which makes it look like a link, but tapping it does nothing. Pressing and holding it does nothing. I've also noticed that it's impossible to select just the link; the minimum selection will always include the word before or after it.

I just tried using Kindle for Mac 1.9.1, and it exhibits the same behavior as the Fire. Perhaps "notes" are implemented differently on the Fire and the Kindle apps than they are on the K2? Whatever the reason, the result is a book that works on some Kindle platforms but not others.
