Amazon amps e-reader rivalry with free Kindle for PC
Amazon.com is trying to get more people to buy the electronic books that are compatible with its Kindle gadget by offering free software for people to read them on a computer.
The USA-based online retailer said Thursday, 22 October 2009, that it will release an application called "Kindle for PC" in November.
It will let you buy, download and read Kindle books on a Windows-based PC, regardless of whether you own a Kindle. It will also include touchscreen features for Windows 7 users.
If you also own a Kindle, you can see any notes or highlights made on the e-reader.
