Since Kindle Fire is not on HoneyComb, should I just build a standard app for the Kindle Fire? I have made multiple Android phone apps, but never a tablet app. But it appears to me that Kindle won't use things like fragments?

What considerations should I take in designing an app FOR the Kindle Fire outside of what I already know in designing phone apps?

I read the Amazon docs, but couldn't really find any specific development info.

Fragments are in the Android Compatibility Library. From a technological standpoint, a tablet app is just an app. You just make use of the larger screen real estate. You can get started in the usual Android docs.

This is not an answer, since I've yet to get a Fire for testing, but I'm supposing that you can use Android's "Support Package" to use fragments since it's Gingerbread.
