Amazon just announced that they will be releasing their Kindle app later this summer for Android devices, with the promise that your “with Google” smartphone or tablet will be able to browse and download from the full library of Amazon e-books, as well as read the ones you have already purchased. It’s a great step in widening the reach of their Kindle service, given that many just can’t justify the purchase of a stand alone Kindle. Of course, Google Editions is also set to debut this summer (with a potential 4 million titles at launch) and looks like it will give the Amazon store a run for its money.
Androinica got hands-on with the app at Google I/O, and its just about what we expected. And that’s nothing bad at all, as the Kindle app looks like it will make reading on your Android device straightforward and intuitive. Take a look for yourself below:
