Amazon has updated their Kindle app for the iPhone and iPod Touch to provide a few small improvements, like landscape view and a couple of new color settings. I appreciate the beige/brown option, but I really wish Amazon would roll out some more significant updates, like the ability to make and read notes, highlight text, and receive magazine subscriptions. I read from my iPhone about as much as from my Kindle these days, and really notice the reduced functionality.
Oh well. Gripe gripe gripe. Launch the App Store on your iPhone/Touch and grab the Kindle app or update. They’re both free.
By the way, if you have an iPhone or iPod Touch and read ebooks, you should really download the free Kindle app even if you don’t own a Kindle, because the Amazon store has the cheapest ebooks you’ll find online. (Yes, they’re locked to your device via DRM, but unfortunately this is the case for all ebook stores.)
