Looks like you were right - I thought I'd try it and it installed - took quite a few tries to get an account to register with some crashes. Also 'buying' a freebie book took a while to come through, too.
Of course, they could be overloaded with people trying it out, too. Application itself nowhere near as cool as mobipocket desktop reader yet. |

I've installed in five seconds, with no problems to register. I don't know the application, I haven't read anything.

downloaded it, installed it. Crashed while downloading a free book. But I restarted the app and the book was there. Looks quite good. Now what we really need is how to get the Kindle ID.

I'd rather be able to read my .tpz ebooks on my iPod or even my Cybook Gen3, but I can live with the PC for those few I purchase. The .azw ebooks I can read on my iPod until my Kindle 2 gets here from repair. Derek |

You can already read the Topaz books using the Kindle for iPhone/Touch app - or am I completely missing something?
Tracey nevermind, I misread your post to say that you couldn't read the books on the iPod. I'll go back to my corner, now. Last edited by tlrowley; 11-10-2009 at 11:46 AM. |

I had to read one Topaz book on the iphone, since Amazon had the cheapest prices, I was eager to get it and unfortunately didn't check first. Not exactly a pleasant experience, but I didn't experience slow page turns --- except when graphics were involved (which was at the beginning of each chapter).
