It’s kinda dumb to put a kindle program on ipod and not give text to speech. I was going buy an ipod touch just for the text to speech, but forget it. I mean come on, ipods are predominately made to be listened to, hahaha, next Apple’s going to make a coffee maker that doesn’t heat water.

This is a GREAT app. Having book on the iphone/touch is great for commuting. no longer carrying anything, just the phone/touch in your pocket ready to go, with great clarity and ease of use. Awesome

Looks like this is the plan – tap into lucrative multi-million user market of iPhone owners. Also it’s quite possible that after reading on the iPhone for some time you’ll want a bigger screen and end up buying Kindle hardware as well :)

I think Amazon is on to something here. I had no plans (and still don’t) to purchase a Kindle, but I do have an iPhone. I downloaded the iPhone app yesterday and already have purchased two Kindle books.

So, in spite of not gaining me as a Kindle H/W customer (yet?), Amazon has added to its media purchasing base by releasing this application to this iPhone user.

Besides the enhancement to make iPhone purchases easier, I think they also need to deal with unreadable diagrams in the books (perhaps a problem for the Kindle too?).

are there any plans to release kindle software as a standalone pc application.

basically not everyone can afford an ipod or kindle, ~$300, many people out there have a pc or have access to one and would like to read amazon’s ebooks.

even better why not have the books readable from a browser application. they could login to their secure website, purchase books, kept on amazon servers and can access them via browser.

Great review and screenshots! Thanks for putting them up there. Quick question: I have a handful of books that I converted to .azw books myself and have been adding to my kindle via usb. Can I put these on the iPhone and read? Or will this new app just read stuff bought via Amazon?

Thanks again for posting this!
