In this article you are going to see how the Amazon Kindle can be used in conjunction with your iPhone. You can now download a free application that you can use to read ebooks on your iPhone. This announcement has seen many thousands of users rushing to download the application and try it out. Also, many people have been so impressed with this technology that iPhone users have decided to buy a Kindle 2 themselves. This gives you an idea of the power inside this little application.
I will now describe exactly how the Kindle iPhone application works. In reality, it's like having your Kindle 2 with you all the time, except inside your iPhone. It's pretty cool really. If you like to take your Kindle with you when you leave the house, then this is a way to stop carrying it around. Now you can simply view all your ebooks on your iPhone in a much more discreet manner. This is perfect if you just have a little free time and want to do some reading.
The application is applicable for both the iPhone and iPod touch, which gives many users free usage. The application also makes reading from the iPhone a better experience than many people could imagine. You can choose from 5 sizes of fonts and browsing through pages is also very easy. All you need to do is swipe the screen to the left or right in order to move pages. In order to bookmark pages, find the contents page or view the front cover, you only need to tap the screen.
The other great thing is that you can access your ebooks without needing to have your Amazon Kindle with you. With the Kindle iPhone application, you can just log into your Amazon account and download any of your own ebooks right to your iPhone. With the Kindle's Whispersync technology, you can also start from the position that you left of from on either device. All you need to do is ensure that the two devices are in sync before you stop reading. This will ensure that you start at the right page, next time you want to read.
Another great thing about the Kindle iPhone app is that it gives the reader a full-color version of the images from its LCD screen, as opposed to the Kindle's shades of gray. What it cannot do however, is permanently replace the Kindle as the choice reading device. While the iPhone acts as a perfect foil to the Kindle, the latter's e-paper technology, wide screen, and superior readability is still the best device for hours of nonstop reading.
The Kindle for iPhone application is very exiting but there are a couple of disadvantages. For instance you cannot buy books from Amazon with the iPhone. You can't browse through the Kindle library and you can't read magazines or newspapers either. The application only lets you read ebooks. These features are probably going to be resolved at a later date, so they are not great concerns, but something to think about. The application is still great and recommended to everyone.
