Besides, you could use those toes to watch streaming videos on the Fire!

To get back on topic and reply to the OP's question, I would not be surprised if downloading of movies is made available, with time restrictions, for the Fire.

Currently, movie rentals in the Android Market can be "pinned" or downloaded for later viewing. The downloaded file is good for 30 days but once the movie is started the clock begins a 24-hour countdown. In that 24-hour period there is no limit on the number of times the movie can be viewed.

Knowing Amazon, I would expect them to offer something similar, if not better.

Samsung "net app list" does have interfaces with Netflix, Vudu, Hulu, Facebook, etc., and they add new ones occasionally, so I'm hoping it'll show up sooner or later.
Amazon sells the Roku player - you can watch movies through this with internet connection. It also has Netflix and Hulu channels to name a few.

Thank you. I did notice that Amazon offers a 48-hour period for most movies. A few are 7 days.

Yes -- but can these be downloaded to one's device? I haven't tried yet since I normally stream the movies available via Prime. But like you, I need movies for traveling without an internet connection.
