Amazon introduces a mobile browser, Amazon Silk.

With their recent successful entry into the consumer products and software markets with the Kindle devices and the marketplace, I knew they must be cooking up something to utilize their crazy behind-the-scenes infrastructure services.

Silk uses their EC2 platform to decouple the rendering of web pages on mobile browsers from the hardware limitations of lower-power devices. They’re doing some amazing smart stuff to offload page rendering, image optimization, and caching to EC2. Amazing.
