  2. is there a way to download the Firefox apk w/o the need of a computer period? At present, I don't have access to one. Also, I really don't want to root my kindle fire unless it is absolutely necessary, but so far, it's looking like that's going to be my only option. I really like my kindle fire don't get me wrong, but I had no idea that owning one would require the use of so many methods/alternatives just to download certain files. Hope the need to buy an iPad, Galaxy or some other Android tablet prove unnecessary. Anywho, if there's another alternative PLEASE let me know asap. Thanks in advance and hoping i get a reply before needing to root
