That simply isn't true. As Harry said, Amazon is primarily a
content seller, not a device seller. Cutting down choice is the last thing they want to do because they want everyone to be able to buy their content.
As it is, I have more choice in devices on which to read Amazon content than any other competitor. There are Amazon choices for people with Windows, Android, and iOS portable devices; there are Amazon choices for Windows and Apple computers.
If anyone produced a standalone large e-ink tablet with app support, Amazon would probably put the Kindle app on it, too.
They want lots of devices, but they don't care which particular ones.
