    Is there a way to watch this on the Z30? App? Through the browser? I've tried and all methods and can't get it to work.

    I've watched through the browser on my z10. I think I needed to put it in desktop mode first.

    I have tried this and it brings up the watch this screen but i can't get it to start. Can anyone verify that it works on their Z30 and how?

    After you've done so, reload the page.

    Amazon blocked it. I know this cause it used to work then amazon came out with an update to their Web page and blocked Blackberry's browser from working. I asked amazon and they stated that they don't support our device and they will monitor going forward if they feel it should be available on BB10 devices

    That's lame they blocked it. So much for using the browser and not needing an app. :-(

    I just verified that it still works on the z10 in desktop mode. So I think amazon only blocked it for mobile web.

    I did need to hit the watch now button a couple of times, kept pressing until it worked. Press and hold.

    Tmf06 thanks! Kept pressing and it finally worked. It's a pain in the *** but it's working, so thanks very much for verifying.

    Works fine for me. Make sure you choose continue using Flash when it asks to download Silverlight.

    Yes, it works. You may need to change your settings from within Amazon. When you get the prompt to download Silverlight you will see an option for "I've already downloaded Silverlight and need help" just below the download button. Select that option. Scroll all the way to the bottom of that following page and you will see "I've done all of the above and it's still not working" (or something to that effect) with a hyper link to "change option to play videos using Flash" (or, again, something to that effect). Click that. Scroll to select Flash instead of silver light. It should automatically Dave upon selection. Reload the video you are trying to watch and all will work from there on out. (Maybe not perfectly, but it will work!).

    Good luck!

    Amazon Prime worked great and no issues on my playbooks until Amazon starting tightening acess to Prime to their hardware. You could get it to work in another browser (like Origami Browser), then you had to go to Desktop mode as mentioned above. Now it looks like they finally locked it up. That's why I left Prime for Netflix, much better imho.....

    Got off the phone today with Amazon. They are currently working on a fix for BlackBerry phones. So stay tuned, it's coming

    I read this thread and just checked, and Amazon Prime Video playback is working beautifully on my Z30's native browser's desktop mode! I'm getting great picture quality and playback quality.

    What gives with these reports that it's not working or is blocked? Just go to Amazon.com, sign in, go to desktop mode with flash player activated, refresh the browser, navigate to your videos, and enjoy!

    That's because you have the leak 10.3. Amazon will not work on 10.2. XXXX.

    This is not true. It works on my Z10 with 10.2.1. 3253 (and prior versions). I just verified again.

    I put it in desktop mode and enable flash. Sometimes I need to press and hold the "watch now" button a several times (it tries to zoom), but it will play eventually.
