Ideas for Kindle Apps?

willCode4Beer · 02-08-2010, 12:30 PM

Hi everyone (I've just joined the forum)

So, I'm sure many of you know, Amazon recently announce a developer program. Looks like their plan is to follow in the footsteps of the iphone app store.

I've received my initial invite and, I'm currently waiting to get into the program. I do have the API so, I've already started playing around with app development for the Kindle.

I'm working on an E-6B emulator and I'll probably do the same for an astrolabe.

I'm curious about what kind of apps you guys would find interesting. Keeping bandwidth usage to a minimum will be an obvious concern.

thoughts?

Have you read the previous thread with requests or ideas about what apps people want?

I looked around for an existing thread before posting and didn't see it. Sorry about that.

Could you post the link to the other thread? I'm still not seeing it.
thanks
