Kindle icon for Windows desktop?
A hundred thousand pardons if this has been asked before -- but does anyone have a Kindle icon ready to use on the Windows desktop? Thanks!

If it's the Kindle for PC, then, yes.

The OP's ZIP file contains two icons and an autorun.inf file to be placed on your Kindle. When you do, any Windows machine will display whichever of the two custom icons you've chosen to place on your Kindle along with the INF file. You could substitute any other appropriate icon if you wish.

Hello everyone.

Here's a Kindle icon file with multiple sizes ranging from 16x16 - 256x256. For Vista/7.

Nothing fancy- just your basic Kindle 3 with text on the screen.
