turns iPhone into a reader ebooks

E-Book ebook amazon kindle kindle amazon.com ipod touch 2

"Kindle for iPhone" is a new application that Amazon.com has performed for the mobile phone and media player Apple iPod Touch. This program acts as an electronic book reader, being an equivalent software that can be found on devices Kindle and Kindle 2 of the popular U.S. online bookseller.

The application download and installation is free, but not the books should be purchased at the online store Amazon. Holders of a Kindle 2 can also synchronize their readings, so they can jump between the two devices.

Amazon has released this application as a complement to its main product reader ebooks, that although it caused great excitement in the network has not played a large mass of sales. In fact, society does not yet seem to be prepared for such gadgets, which still must overcome some disadvantages such as battery life, screen (not to be tiring to the eye) and the size of the device itself. However, despite these drawbacks, Amazon is carving out a future and is pleased with the acceptance that has taken the device.

For now, nothing has been said of the controversial automatic reading function, although it is likely that given the problems that Amazon has been found, this has not been incorporated into the software for the iPhone.

The iPhone will not be another Kindle

Although it might seem that with this movement, Amazon.com wants to convert to your Apple into a new ebook reader like Kindle technically far from both devices seem. And this is due not only to their duties and their origin and goal differential, but the main element that we need to read (display) is very different between the two devices.

While the Kindle was born with a vocation for electronic book reader and it has a very comfortable screen that simulates the brightness and reflection of the role that reading does not end up becoming tired eyes, the screen of your Apple is so comfortable in this sense, it is not a device that can be used successfully, for example, spend an entire Sunday afternoon reading a book, while Amazon's Kindle itself was born with this objective in mind.

In this sense, what Amazon is looking for the casual reader, who reads magazines on the train, bus, or takes any time to read a few paragraphs, but do not necessarily spend hours engaged in a book. Increase their sales is another objective of the online bookseller for excellence.

With this move, Amazon also thwarts any possible attempt by Apple to turn the iPhone / iPod Touch into an eBook reader in the future, Amazon.com is the leading online bookseller, and his application platform Apple expand its dominance in this field that also will be a pioneer. However, the fact that Apple has accepted the application suggests that either has no plans to sell electronic books in the future, or has had to accept that Amazon will go ahead to keep them secret.

ITunes "Next target?

This initiative also makes one wonder if the next step is that Amazon sells eBooks directly through the iTunes Store. Is not difficult to imagine a business alliance, given that Amazon.com already has an application that gives access to its online store from the iPhone, so Apple does not pose any danger and much to gain for both companies. And with this step, Apple would strengthen its leadership as extending to store content in written form.
