I agree. I know that Amazon has come under some criticism for releasing the SDK now, and with some rather crippling limitations on 3G usage, but really, they are just setting the stage for a wider range of capable devices. (I'm reasonably sure the next generation of devices will have more 3G functionality...and require some sort of 3G data plan.)
If they didn't release an SDK until the new devices were ready, they'd be criticized for being too slow..so, you can't win
