Here comes a major addition to the Kindle platform’s family. Kindle for Android has been announced for this summer. Amazon launched a preview page, where interested users can look into the details first-hand and sign up to be notified the moment the application is openly available.

The features listed are basically the same as of the other Kindle Apps:  Availability of purchased books across all Kindle platforms, Whispersync across your entire account keeping track of last page read and annotations,  five font sizes and a  intuitive touch-screen page turning interface. You can read in either portrait or landscape mode.

It looks like Amazon is about to become the most cross-platform eBook reader on the market.

There are two requirements

1. Kindle for Android requires Android OS 1.6 or greater.
2. It requires an SD card.

Kindle for Android will have in-app purchases.
