Question Fire 0S3-Can you side load apps?
Do the new Kindle HDX's (somebody's gotta have their hands on one by now) allow installing "non-Amazon" apps like the previous Fires?

Specifically I'm wondering if you can load "Cool Reader"

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure you can. Amazon has always supported this I don't see them removing it anytime soon.

Cool Reader should work fine. I prefer Mantano myself.
