Amazon.com will soon launch Kindle for PC, a free application that lets readers enjoy Kindle books on their personal computers (PC). Kindle books can now be read on the Kindle, Kindle DX, iPhone, iPod touch, and PC. Kindle for PC features Amazon's Whispersync technology that automatically saves and synchronizes bookmarks and last page read across devices. The Kindle for PC also lets people buy and download books from the Kindle store. The software is billed as a companion for people who own a Kindle.
"Kindle for PC is the perfect companion application for folks who own a Kindle or Kindle DX," said Ian Freed, Vice President, Amazon Kindle. "Kindle for PC is also a great way for people around the world to read the most popular books of today even if they don’t yet have a Kindle."
IGN says the download will be available sometime next Month. You can signup at http://www.amazon.com/KindleforPC to receive an email when Kindle for PC becomes available. IGN's story also says Amazon plans similar Kindle applications for Macs and BlackBerry devices.
