Is Amazon intentionally attempting to lock down the device?

The new Sonys are Androids too. But I got the impression that Nooks are preferred for hacking. Check this out:
Quake 3 on a Nook
I don't know if you could do that on a Sony. Maybe the rooted Nook is more stable than the Sony.
Anyway, sorry to hear the new Kindle is more locked-down. Hopefully the developers will get round it.
