I've never quite understood who would want to a read a book from a small device such as their iPhone. Book enthusiasts must despair that people will buy a book and then look at a screen to read the novel. The beauty of reading a book is that we can get away from looking at screens all day. That's why we'll bring books on holiday, but leave our computer behind. Still, there are loads of people who like the idea of just carrying device and using this single device to fulfil their requirements.

Amazon Kindle for iPhone is a free application that will enable us to use the Kindle service on your phone or iPod Touch. Simple install the app, hook up to the Amazon Kindle store, select from the books on offer and then access and read them on your portable device.
