Why would I uninstall it? The point of the Mars is to be able to use Kindle, Kobo, Borrowbox and Google Playbooks on eInk, not just LCD phone or Tablets.

It was nice that it and Playstore was "hidden" when the Google Framework is off. I wish my tablets & phones had such setting as Google are so dishonest. Previously if I wanted to read a Google sourced ebook I'd enable the framework and disable WiFi, unless I wanted another from the Playstore. Makes me suspicious that PlayBooks needs the Framework. However the Kindle App tries to use my phone's Mobile (cellular) data connection, even though it's disabled, without a manual launching. So I removed it from everything except the Mars now.
