How do you get Apps for Kindle Fire??

In_a_mess

I have been looking at the possibility of Kindle Fire for my sons christmas present but I keep seeing people say how you are 'locked in' to Amazon for the Apps. Is there any way I can see the Apps available for purchase/download before I buy one.
I think the Kindle Fire may be suitable for his needs but would have liked to view the Apps first to check
Thanks so much

Those might lead you to additional info.

Just one more question - Does the lack of a camera on Kindle Fire restrict the apps you can download from Amazon. I know on my old Ipod some are not compatible due to this reason
