My app would work very nicely on the new Amazon Kindle Fire, but it would be nice to test it and remove any kinks before they flood onto the market! Is there an emulator of the kindle fire available

Quoting the documentation:

It is possible to configure a standard Android emulator to simulate the Kindle Fire device platform. You should configure your emulator with the following characteristics:

  • Width: 600px
  • Height: 1024px (note that the device will reserve 20px of the height to display a soft key menu, yielding a height of 1004px when in full-screen mode
  • Abstracted LCD Density: 169
  • Target: Android 2.3.4 - API Level 10
  • RAM: 512 MB
