I installed it, it's well done. Apparently you can't highlight or use a dictionary, but otherwise it has basic the basic settings of the other apps. I wish they would allow subscription to be read on apps too.

I'm glad to see this is rolling out to more browsers.

I'd like to see them take a more "features based" approach to rolling it out though. A browser should just support the features they need or not.

For now it doesn't support 'Personal Documents'. Given how they highlighted 'Personal Document' syncing etc. as a feature of the 3.3 firmware upgrade to the Kindle3, I sincerely hope they'll rethink this policy.

If they start supporting this (for the cloud reader as well as for the PC/Mac/iPhone/etc) it would really change how I for one handle my digital media.

I tried using this the other day. It worked fairly well. I'm impressed with it so far.
