I can't find a gmail app for the Kindle Fire. Is it possible to get my gmail on it? Can I use another email app to check my gmail? I'm so used to gmail I'd like to find a way to put it on if possible. Would I have to root it to do that?

The built-in email app is very easy to setup and works just fine for me. You indicate Gmail, and enter your email address on Gmail, plus password, and you are good to go.

Works fast and well.

Gmail can be added if you are rooted.

However, you can also access gmail via the web either via the default browser or others (I've been playing with Opera Mobile).

You can sideload the Gmail app, and most other Google apps, if you sideload and install the Google Services Framework prior to installing the Google apps.

I currently have Gmail running on my un-rooted Kindle Fire with no problems.

Same here. Just download the Google Services Framework (Google it), then install Google books, reboot. Open Books, add your Google account.

Sideload other Google apps> Gmail, GDocs, Google Play Books, Google Earth, Google Reader, Google+, all work well. Couldn't get Google Music to work.
