This one specifically doesn't have any pictures at all because I didn't think they were needed given the steps might vary so much. The instructable have been edited slightly to fit better here. You can read the original posts at my blog here. I realized I was writing a lot of diy posts that were suited for making into instructables so I thought I'd republish the posts here. I gave up on even trying it.This was originally a blog post of mine. ISSUES WITH THE KINDLE FOR THE IPHONE APP:ġ) I'm put off by having to register before I can use it!Ģ) I'm put off by screens of a licensing agreement.ģ) They're kidding right? You can't fetch books directly to the i-device through the app? Big limitation.Ĥ) No way to fetch and read public domain books from the app (e.g., from Gutenberg, manybooks, etc.). Readers such as Stanza & iSilo allow one to set colors, and using orange, blue, or green text on a black background works wonderfully.ġ) No backlight, so unusable in the dark.Ģ) Horrendous screen flickering on page turning. The iPhone/iPod Touches are even better with their much larger screens. Years ago, when I first saw an "ebook" demonstrated on a Palm IIxe (Civil War diaries), I too thought "There's no way I'd ever read a book on such a tiny screen."īut after getting my own Palm and then SONY Clies and reading several classics in the middle of the night (and not having to turn on a light and disturbing my spouse), I was a convert! There are times though, believe it or not, when it's handy to have a small book with you on your phone, but I'm not sure I'd want to build a whole library of books for my iPhone. So the app is nice, it's just a question of how much I'm willing to read on such a small screen, but there's not much Amazon can do about that. The price of books on Amazon also works in their favor compared to Stanza and the eBook Reader. That's unlike Stanza, which I used to read one book, where you can just tap to page forward. The only thing I didn't like with the Kindle app is that you have to swipe your finger across the screen to advance the page (well, unless I'm missing something). I downloaded the sample chapter from one book.

You can use the Safari browser on the iPhone to connect to the Amazon store and download books from there. I installed the Kindle reader on my iPhone during lunch. Next: Debugging the Digital-TV Transition

Previous: Apple Updates Mac Mini, iMac Desktops You're welcome to debate that judgment in the comments - and share your own experiences with this program, if you've already downloaded Kindle for iPhone. But the arrival of this one program doesn't make the Kindle any sort of open system: You're still limited to reading your not-quite property on the devices that Amazon permits, not the ones you might want. I give Amazon credit for shipping this program far faster than I'd expected from its vague promises of compatibility. But even with all those advantages, I'm still not sure I'd want to read an entire novel on a 3.5-in. And since the iPhone and iPod screens are backlit, unlike Kindle displays, you can read in the dark too. Text looked sharper on the iPod touch's screen, thanks to its higher resolution and immensely superior contrast - not to mention its ability to draw a new page without hesitation or flickering. I tapped one to download it over the Touch's WiFi connection, and the title arrived a few seconds later, open to a page two chapters behind where I'd set it aside on a Kindle 2 earlier in the evening. On an iPod touch, a tap of the "Archived Items" link on the Kindle program's home screen brought up a list of the Kindle books I've bought.

In that respect, Kindle for iPhone is no competition for other iPhone/iPod readers, such as the free Stanza.Īmazon's application does, however, seem to do a fine job of keeping Kindle readers current with their reading. That's because it does less than that device: This program doesn't let you buy Kindle titles (though you can visit Amazon's Kindle Store in a Web browser and designate titles for delivery to an iPhone or iPod Touch), nor does it display your newspaper, magazine or blog subscriptions. The new Kindle for iPhone application - available in Apple's iTunes Store and in an iPhone or iPod Touch's App Store - is easier to use than even the simpler Kindle 2 Amazon debuted last month. Earlier this morning, Amazon released a free program for Apple's iPhone and iPod Touch that lets users of either device read books they've purchased on one of the Seattle firm's Kindle electronic-book readers.
