Iphone Kindle Application
Questions about Amazon Kindle?
Hey everybody, I was thinking about buying Kindle, but I don’t really like the hardware, I am more interested in the Kindle Store:
1) How do you browse the Kindle Store before actually buying the device? I want to check which books are available.
2) Are there any other applications that let you buy books from the Kindle Store? For iPhone or WM, or maybe even for PCs?
1) You can just do a search in the Amazon Kindle store to see if a book is available in Kindle format. Alternatively, just look for the paper version of a book, and it will show the Kindle version in the “Formats” table if it is available. Like this book, it is available in Kindle format:

2) You cannot read Kindle books on PC, but you can on iPhone or iPod. However, it is not recommended because their screens are too small and they are backlit. Actually, it is not suggested to read too much with electronic devices, other than using ebook readers. I’ve once read an article mentioning about this here as well:

I also suggest you to read this review from a top reviewer who is also a book lover, it outlines quite a lot of benefits of the Kindle and also why it is worth especially at the end of the review:

BTW, there are some website like this one, where you can find more than 20,000 free books for the Kindle. So no need to go to library to borrow them, you can actually own them:

Hope this helps.
