Amazon has rolled out an update for its Kindle for Android offering which will definitely delight the Android users. So what's included in the update? Well it has some good stuff, if you are into purchasing books from the comfort of your Android handset.
Besides the purchase power, you also get to read and sync with more than 100 Kindle newspaper and magazines which include some big names in New York Times, Newsweek and so on.
Other features include the ability to seamlessly buy and download Kindle books and periodicals within the Kindle for Android app, share reading progress via social networks, and zoom closer to images and other graphics.
The app can be downloaded from the Android Market. Users who already have the app installed on their handset will receive the update automatically.
According to Russ Grandinetti, Vice President, Amazon Kindle, the idea behind this update is to bring the buy once read everywhere experience:
We want to give customers the freedom and flexibility to buy their newspapers and magazines once, and read them everywhere across the devices and platforms they chose—just like they do with Kindle books today. Kindle for Android is our fastest-growing application, and we’re excited to launch over 100 newspapers and magazines for our Android customers.
