There are so many amazon related plugins – as a result, my testing was pretty brief.
Some notes:
Amazon Associate Filter – nothing happens
Amazon Book Picture from ASIN – just creates images from ASIN , uses shortcodes
Amazon Carousel(*) – flash, uses shortcodes, cool, lots of options, easy to use
Amazon Context Links Ads – does nothing
Amazon Machine Tags – complicated, uses shortcodes, requires an AWS key
Amazon MP3 Clips widget(*) – cool, flash 9.0.45 or above required, shortcodes, lots of options
Amazon Niche Store(*) – shortcodes, lots of options, 10% of the time is plugin author’s Amazon affiliate ID, plugin author linkback, widget included
Amazon Product Ads(*) – widget only, displays 1 item only, self-optimizing (auto) setting
Amazon Reloaded for WordPress – adds setting to post page but ajax not working
Amazon Search – not working, error: MissingParameter / Signature, widget and shortcode links only
Amazon Showcase – Access Identifiers required (AWS keys?)
AmazonSimpleAdmin – Access Identifiers required (AWS keys?)
Amazon SmartLinks Widget – many widget, working pretty well, looks nice
Amazon Widgets Shortcodes(*) – cool, lots of shortcodes, adds section to post page, conflicts with Amazon Niche Store plugin resulting in no output, must know exact widget ID
Keral Patel Amazon WordPress Plugin – requires an amazon web services access key
(*) i liked, but needs further testing

Thanks for sharing. I also have been testing amazon plugins since this morning and the only one I liked is AmazonFeed. Try that one as well. it used AWS key and matches products with the content of the pages. You can set the products to match the category or the tags.
