How to take a screenshot with a Kindle Fire

When one of the steps is 'Download the Android SDK', there is a problem. [Link]

I just got off the phone with Erica Sadun, geek girl extraordinaire, who had posted instructions yesterday on how to take screenshots on a Kindle Fire but who kindly walked me through the process today. I'll explain what she told me in case you too are interested.

Let me preface this with the fact that I've never used Android before today. If you, too, are new to Android, you should find everything you need in these instructions. If you already know Android, you'll probably be bored. 

1First, connect your Kindle Fire to your Mac. (I don't think the process is very different on a Windows or Unix box, but to be honest, I really don't know.)  

2Next, download the Android SDK. You can find that here:http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r15-macosx.zip. You don't have to install anything else besides this.

Only twenty more steps to go!
