Hi,

If you can enable installing non-Amazon market apps in your Kindle app settings, you can download and install the from the ftp link at https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platf.../Android#Download_Firefox_for_Android. If you go this route you will be responsible for installing updates, which is important to do for security.

Thanks, Michelle
