I tried a couple of times to get an account from amazon for testing their web services implementation, but I was unsuccessful - I never received a response to my application.  On the other hand, I was able to access google's web services using aolserver/nsjava, and I have created a web services package for openacs that integrates the apache axis web service implementation.  The apache axis package provides support for both client and server web service implementations, and you should be able to use it to access the amazon web services, assuming that you are able to obtain an account.

Wes,

I'm working on an integration with Amazon's web services. My work is based on tDOM, which makes life a lot easier. Take a look at http://www.thecodemill.biz/amazon for an example. This page will show basic book information for a (fixed) book. All the data is obtained through Amazon's web services. At the bottom of the page you'll find a dump from response from Amazon parsed by tDOM. All repsonses from Amazon are cached too! Expect to hear more come January.
