Press Release from Amazon

Kindle for iPhone and iPod touch Now Available For Free From Apple's App Store

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 4, 2009-- Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) today introduced “Kindle for iPhone and iPod touch,” a new application available for free from Apple's App Store that lets customers enjoy over 240,000 books, including 104 of 112 New York Times Bestsellers, on the iPhone and iPod touch using Apple's Multi-Touch user interface.
Amazon's new Whispersync technology saves and synchronizes a customer's bookmark across their original Kindle, Kindle 2, iPhone and iPod touch, so customers always have their reading with them and never lose their place. Kindle customers can read a few pages on their iPhone or iPod touch and pick up right where they left off on their Kindle or Kindle 2.
And here is Martin Taylor, NZ publishing's resident digital expert, on the subject.
