Amazon updates Android on the Kindle
ONLINE BOOKSELLER Amazon has updated the version of Android on its Kindle e-reader to allow users to buy, read and sync over 100 newspapers and magazines.
Kindle for Android users can now buy a single issue or subscribe to newspapers and magazines and have them automatically delivered to their device.
Russ Grandinetti, VP of Amazon Kindle said that it will give punters the freedom and flexibility to buy their newspapers and magazines once and read them everywhere across the devices they chose.
He pointed out that Kindle for Android is Amazon's fastest growing application. There is a full list of newspapers and magazines available on Kindle for Android, here.
Amazon is strategically placing itself to go head to head with the Ipad by pushing apps for newspaper and magazine subscriptions. The Ipad has been revolutionary for many publishers in the news and magazine industry and Amazon is interested in leading the pack in that area.
Apple has not gotten around to offering subscriptions to magazines on its App Store, so Amazon's move gives it a leg up over its cappuccino competition. µ

Perhaps they've updated the version of the Kindle software on Android?!
Oh, and there's a full stop in the link which breaks it.
Bit more checking before pressing 'post' perhaps?
The current title makes it sound like the Kindle runs on the Android OS.
The headline and first sentence of this article seem very confusing and poorly written.
"Amazon has updated the version of Android on its Kindle e-reader"
I gather from reading the rest of the article that Amazon has actually updated its Kindle App on the Android OS. For A moment I thought that the Kindle device itself was running Android OS.
