"In my case, this was "http://192.168.1.8:8080".

At least at the time this thread was started, the Kindle would not accept urls with port numbers appended. It would only use port 80 if you specified http:// or 443 if you specified https://
If this has changed now, great. Even easier.

Also the original point of this was to access your stuff from OUTSIDE, particularly via the Kindle's 3G connection.
