    You can not just choose a static public IP address. You MUST use an address provided by the ISP, which has to be within their subnet range or it can not talk to the Internet.. You can not set a public IP on the Kindle or any other private network machine. To get a static IP you have to subscribe to it from your ISP, they charge extra, and may require you to subscribe to an expensive business broadband account. You would then HAVE to configure your router to forward appropriate ports to that machine. Even if you try to set a static IP on your router it cuts off your service and gives the provider the right to terminate your service without notice. A d leaves you liable for the rest of the contract period, plus damages for any loss of data your action caused. This can run to millions.

    The IP address is allocated by your ISP.
