Amazon has updated their Kindle for Android app to the ridiculously-numbered version 2.0.0.101810146. With the update comes a few notable new features:

  • Access to over 100 Kindle newspapers and magazines
  • "Move to SD Card" option
  • In-app purchases
  • Social network integration
  • Chapter titles now show in the reader status bar
  • Zoom for images
  • Volume rocker can function as page up/down

The app supports all versions of Android from 1.6 up. And don't forget - your purchases are linked by account, not device - meaning any books you purchase on your actual Kindle can be accessed in the Kindle app on your phone.
