Amazon is accepting beta developer participants for the Kindle Development Kit (KDK).
This is a limited beta, those who get selected will be able to:

The Kindle Development Kit includes sample code, documentation, and the Kindle Simulator, which helps developers build and test their content by simulating the 6-inch Kindle and 9.7-inch Kindle DX device on Mac, PC, and Linux desktops. Content submission is free during limited beta.
What kind of Kindle apps would you like to see on your Kindle ereader (free or small fee)? Are you interested in only apps that help you manage the reading experience or would you want addictive games and other non-reading related apps that are potential reading distractions?


I have over 1500 short stories/books on my kindle 3. I need an app that would let me mark the ones I have read.LOL Memory not as good lately.Any idea as to where I could get one?
Hello John, That’s quite impressive – you have relied on your memory to manage 1500 titles on your Kindle. To give your memory a break, please have a look at How to Mark Kindle Books as Read. Cheers!
It would be very nice to have a flash card program. It would also be nice to have a test mode for you flash cards; may be multiply choice.
