Same issue with the Fire here. Content server works, downloads successfully as .mobi file but the Kindle doesn't know what to do with it. I get "Cannot Open File" when I try to launch from the download notification area. I have downloaded "File Expert" and located the file on the SD card under the Downloads folder and attempted to open there, but it prompts me to identify if the file is a "Text, audio, video or image" file. When I select text (b/c it seems to be the best option) it prompts me to associate the file with HTMLViewer or QuickOffice, but no option for the Kindle app.
