But Amazon has taken significant steps beyond the Kindle to develop its mobile commerce platform over the past year, including the October launch of 1-Click checkout for its mobile-optimized website.</p> <p>Thursday&rsquo;s report would render those efforts a huge success and serve as an example for other merchants mapping their own mobile strategies.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://www.websitemagazine.com/content/aggbug.aspx?PostID=14466" width="1" height="1">amazonmobile commerce1-click checkout
