获取 Kindle 开发套件的要求
项目提案需要多集中才能获得 Kindle 开发套件?
从亚马逊的请求访问页面:
简要描述活动内容 您打算构建的应用程序 电子书阅读器
我还没有项目规范,我只是想探索和实验。我考虑过将其作为我的描述,但我不想因为我的项目不够充实而被拒绝。
人们描述了哪些类型的应用程序使他们能够访问 KDK?是否有人因“糟糕”的提案而被拒绝访问?大约需要多长时间才能收到亚马逊的回复?
How focused a project proposal is required to gain access to a Kindle Development Kit?
From Amazon's Request Access page:
Briefly describe the active content
applications you intend to build on
Kindle
I don't have a project spec yet, I just want to explore and experiment. I thought about putting that as my description, but I don't want to be denied because my project wasn't fleshed out enough.
What types of applications have people described that have gained them access to the KDK? Has anyone been denied access because of a "bad" proposal? About how long did it take to hear back from Amazon?

我的建议是这样的:“我想制作一个 Reddit 应用程序,它可以执行 x、y 和 z,或者可以做笔记。”没有太多细节,但他们确实与我通信,问我是否有什么特别需要的东西,我多久可以开始等等。这是一个简单的过程。
My proposal was something like "I want to make a Reddit app which could do x, y, and z, or maybe something for note-taking." Not much detail, but they actually corresponded with me and asked me if there was anything in particular I would need, how soon I could start, etc. It was an easy process.
我申请了四次,最终在第一次申请七个多月后获得批准,第四次申请仅一个多月后就获得了批准。我的第一次尝试非常具体,列出了几个项目,但随着我变得越来越不热情,我后来的尝试变得越来越笼统,听起来不那么令人印象深刻。我想在我的第四次尝试中,我只是说我想制作一款游戏,但没有透露任何细节。我很确定这就是让我加入的原因,而我之前的尝试都被拒绝了。
我收到的与我的申请相关的唯一信件是四封“感谢您申请;我们会保持联系”的电子邮件,最后是“欢迎加入该计划!”电子邮件。
请记住,作为开发人员,您必须为应用程序的数据消耗付费。最重要的是,我建议不要太具体,也不要试图让你的项目听起来过于雄心勃勃。如果您在一个月左右没有收到回复,请重试。
I applied four different times and finally got approved more than 7 months after my first try, and just over a month after my fourth attempt. My first attempt was very specific and listed several projects, but my later attempts were increasingly generic and less impressive-sounding as I became less and less enthusiastic. I think for my fourth attempt I just said I wanted to make a game and didn't go into any detail. I'm pretty sure that was the one that got me in, and my earlier attempts were rejected.
The only correspondence I received in relation to my applications received were the four, "Thanks for applying; we'll keep in touch," e-mails and the eventual, "Welcome to the program!" e-mail.
Keep in mind that you, as the developer, have to pay for your app's data consumption. Above all, I would recommend not being too specific and not trying to make your project sound too ambitious. If you don't hear back within a month or so, try again.
我两次尝试获取 KDK,但两次 Amazone 在收到确认他们会检查我的请求的简短电子邮件后都没有回复。
我等待接受或拒绝已经一年多了。
我终于越狱了我的 kindle,现在将尝试在没有 KDK 的情况下对其进行开发。
我按照此网站上找到的如何创建 Kindle 应用程序的说明进行操作:

I tried two times to get the KDK and both times Amazone never answered after the short e-mail which confirmed that they will check my request.
I was waiting for acceptance or rejection for more than a year.
I finaly jailbroke my kindle and will now try to develop for it without the KDK.
I followed the instruction how to create an Kindle app found on this web site:

思考亚马逊的动机以及这将如何限制他们允许的行为是有意义的。例如:
一般来说,您应该以开发人员的身份真诚地撰写您的提案,概述您的想法并表明您已考虑到亚马逊的收入保护,或者您将赚很多钱,或者为他们的用户提供有用的东西。
另外,我不会建议任何明显会给 Kindle 带来太大压力的东西。我认为任何比纸牌更密集的事情都是不行的。
It makes sense to think about the motivations of Amazon and how that would restrict what they would allow. For instance:
I general, you should write your proposal as a developer with good faith, outlining your idea and showing you have took Amazon's revenue protection into account, or that your going to make lots of money, or present something usefull for their users.
Also, I wouldn't suggest anything that would obviously put to much strain on the Kindle. I think anything more intensive than solitaire is a no no.
我和这里描述的一些人有类似的经历。我申请了两次,得到一个机器人答复,说亚马逊会看,但他们从来没有看。
I had a similar experience to some described here. I applied twice, got a robot answer saying Amazon would look at it, and they never did.
