  1. As much as I love the Amazon appstore, many of their apps are incredibly out of date (Vlingo for example is up to 3.3 in the Google Android market, but Amazon is still lagging behind with version 2.0.2).

    So I begin to wonder if getting a “free” app just means getting a “really obsolete version of an app for free”.

    They need to get these things up to date. And fast.
