Thumbs up Amazon’s Kindle iOS app now ready for the new iPad’s Retina*Display
Interface looks nice. I was just checking it out. I look forward to continue reading a book on it tomorrow.

Wow, nice ... will try at home, still at work, lol ...

It is a very smart move from Amazon indeed. They are fully aware that tons of people use iPad as readers, without buying ebooks from Apple.

Does this mean we'll see fragmentation? You know, HD apps and non-HD apps?

If the same thing that happened with iPhone 3GS -> iPhone 4 applies, not really. It just means larger apps for everyone.

Nope. New Kindle app looks just fine on my original iPad, and I expect it'll look equally fine - or even better - on my New iPad™ when it arrives tomorrow

There are already apps like that. There is a big visual difference between infinity blade & angry birds. Different kind of fragmentation though.

Thanks. I guess the fact that the new screen is a multiple of the old one makes it easier.
