This is /etc/udev/rules.d/85-kindle.rules as it is now -
# saved to /etc/udev/rules.d/85-kindle.rules
ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="1949", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0004",
RUN+="/home/boudiccas/bin/obkindle"
#ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb",
ATTR{idVendor}=="1949", ATTR{idProduct}=="0004", MODE="0666",
RUN+="/home/boudiccas/bin/obkindle"
Just two long lines, but the first line, #2 is actually quicker at
displaying the kindle than #3, and it still is not automounted.
I've attached a file 'kindlemount.txt' which shows the output of '
udevadm monitor --udev', 'sudo grep Kindle /var/log/syslog', and
'lsusb'.

Theres no difference in the syslog whether I run with 'SYSFS' or
'ATTR', neither show up specifically

You're right, I did forget, but thanks for the reminder. :)
