If I can stay out of the archives, it is working ok again now. In fact, I discovered you can clear the data from the Kindle app and your books stay in place - it only removes the 500MB of cached info for the archive (from what I can tell). Which means it is only a few extra clicks to get rid of it when I do want to install an app (I was down to only the pre-installed ones and a handful of others, which only took up ~ 50MB of space, but had no room to install anything else.
Okay how many books are we talking about? I clear the Kindle app data nightly because of missing covers on books I send during the day. It's a pain to do because you have restart the Kindle each time to get the carousel to display correctly.
