  • They say revenge is a pretty good served cold. But when it comes to circumvent Apple In-App new underwriting rules, it may be better served as a Web application HTML5.

    This morning, Amazon launched its Kindle Reader Cloud, a Web application that allows you to read on your Kindle e-books from Safari or Chrome browser on your PC or tablet, including iPad (Amazon says more browsers will be supported in the future).

    Cloud Kindle Reader is a link to the Kindle store, something that is now missing in the Kindle and the iPhone Apps for the iPad after the implementation of an Apple app, a new order in the rules, which require application developers to remove all links to external mechanisms to buy digital books or subscriptions. Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Google Books, and Kobo, all amended their applications to meet the rules will be changed, removing any links or mentions of their company websites.

    Amazon "Kindle HTML5 move was widely expected as an increasing number of companies are developing Web apps HTML5 to wrest more control from Apple, which must approve all applications that ends at the Apple App Store. In June, for example, the Financial Times offered a HTML5 app for users and to IPAD Kobo recently announced it was developing an about HTML5. We assume that Barnes & Noble has up his sleeve as well.

    On the face of the new Cloud Kindle Kindle reader is very similar to the IOS and Android applications, and by simply logging into your Amazon account, you can access your e-book from the library. Of course, you must have an active Internet connection to synchronize your library on your PC or iPad Kindle Store access. But Amazon offers a caching feature that allocates 50 MB of storage space for your iPhone and lets you check your e-books "disconnected", as you can and iOS Kindle Android applications.
