Browse Node API
---------------

We are introducing a new BrowseNodeLookup operation that
provides information pertaining to a Browse Node. Browse Nodes
are product categories that Amazon creates to segment products
based on pre-defined and/or dynamic criteria. BrowseNodeLookup
has been one of the most frequently requested features by ECS
users and we're thrilled to announce the availability of this
feature. ECS users can use this operation to benefit from
Amazon's merchandising structure in categorizing products on
their Web site and to get the information needed to make Browse
Node-specific search queries.

To learn more about the BrowseNodeLookup operation, please refer
to the online documentation at http://www.amazon.com/gp/aws/sdk .

It is worth noting that many developers asked for this feature
during the beta test of ECS 4.0, and that we did everything
within our power to get this feature up and running in a very
short amount of time.


Excellent, although one of the barriers of entry for AWS sites has been removed. So we might see even more.
