When Android started out the only carrier was T-Mobile then in the fall
of 2009 Verizon added it. AT&T, which I was on at the time, their CEO
said hell would have to freeze over before they added Android. Now you
must be able to get ice cream in hell.
There are a lot of Kindle users too and most apps with any traction are
also available on Amazon. And if it has any sales then other carriers
will add it too.

I guess it's an ok phone for those who *really* like to dwell in the
Amazon home world. I'm an Amazon Prime member (strictly for the free
shipping) because we constantly buy stuff on Amazon that we can't get
locally. But, I don't even use the Amazon mobile app, and I sure as
hell wouldn't want an Android phone that has been proprietarily broken
to not be able to install apps off the Google Play store. On top of
all that, it only works on AT&T, which has terrible coverage in rural
Iowa.
My prediction: a high-end smartphone price tag on a proprietary OS
phone with limited app availability will make it a tiny niche player
at best.
