Urban Airship Says Its Push Notifications Work On Kindle Fire (Which It Found Out By Accident)

gunbros-kindleHere's a funny story: Urban Airship, a backend service provider for mobile developers, recently discovered that its push notifications offering works on Amazon's new Kindle Fire...by accident. Although the company makes an Android push client called Helium, it had no clue that those notifications would also work on Amazon's Kindle Fire out of the box. The company only found out after some developers started integrating the push mechanism into their own apps. Surprise!
