Kindle For iPhone and iPod Now Offers Audio and Video [The Kindle Experience on Apple Devices Just Got Enhanced]

Tweet

So yesterday, you just heard about how Android devices will be getting their own version of Amazon’s Kindle ereader app. But today, a new development emerges that’ll make you think twice if you haven’t already taken a side in the iPhone / Android war: iPhones, and iPod Touches, and even iPads, will get a new version of Kindle with both video and audio.

This proves to be a downright exciting idea–browsing through Amazon’s offerings in the enhanced Kindle department definitely caught my interest–and included exciting concepts like a book about the Beatles that offered in-depth analysis of a variety of songs, or a book about cakes that included full video footage of preparation of said cakes (which pretty much justifies the entire concept of “foodie porn”).

There are only about a dozen or so titles so far that boast the claim of being enhanced with audio and video, so it’s left to us to wonder if this is a gradual rollout or just a test to gauge interest. Either way, though, it should be interesting to watch.
