It might or might not be as restrictive when used with an Amazon device. But in my experience with non-Amazon android devices, it won't allow apps to open without an active internet connection
I put my Droid into airplane mode, cutting off all internet connectivity, and had no trouble loading up apps and games from the Amazon market. So, it's not a universal problem. I've never had to relog into Amazon Market, so that hasn't been a problem either.

I'm still not sold on the Kindle Fire, but I'm heading out tomorrow to see if my local Best Buy has them in stock yet.

Wow, ... you really like the Kindle Fire.

By the way, does the Kinde Fire has landscape mode while reading?

A present for someone. Yes it does the normal screen rotation...all works great. Landscape mode good for web browsing but I usually read in portrait mode -- just about like a paperback that way.
