They did the same with the Kindle. I have a couple of games and notepad applications that I bought with my Kindle Keyboard. They work with the Kindle 4 and the Kindle Touch. Some work on the Paperwhites as well, but there's no way to access active content on the Voyage. I hardly ever use them, but they are handy when you are at the ER with all the reading interruptions early on. Does use up more power though due to page refreshes.

I downloaded relaxing music for reading from Youtube and just play using my old Itouch. It eliminates the distractions from elsewhere in the house.
