This will allow me to enjoy a couple books that have images that are too small to get any of the details out of.
Although, I was now tempted by the possibility of getting technical books in the Amazon Kindle format, I was immediately disappointed that there is no way to copy text or search!
Below are some features to be added in the near future:
- Create notes and highlights
Along with viewing the notes and highlights you created on other Kindle devices, you will be able to create and edit notes and highlights.- Search
You will be able to search to find a word or a sentence in the book you are currently reading.- Zoom and rotate images
Click on an image to see an expanded view and rotate it if desired.
April 9th Update: in response to the poor quality of Kindle for Mac Wesley Moore says:
This is what happens when you do a rough job of being cross platform with Qt. Evidence for that gleaned from the absence of NIBs in the application bundle and references to Qt in the binary (otool -o -V Kindle\ for\ Mac.app/Contents/MacOS/Kindle\ for\ Mac)
Also the UI is trash. I think they just macified the iPhone app.
Thanks for piquing my interest Terry. I looked into it, and provided an update above, April 9th. It doesn’t seem they were even that classy. It looks to be a rough job porting the Windows “Qt” version.
