Amazon Kindle for Windows Phone 7 now available

After having announced plans to deliver tablet-specific versions of their Kindle app for both Android and Windows earlier today, Amazon's Windows Phone 7 app has quietly appeared in the Zune Marketplace. As is the case with Kindle on other mobile platforms, Kindle for WP7 supports in-app purchases from Amazon's extensive catalog.

To customize your reading experience, you can choose five different font sizes and three color schemes -- white on black, black on white, and sepia -- and adjust contrast via a slider control. Device orientation is supported, allowing you to read in portrait or landscape mode. Kindle for WP7 also offers you recommended reads, and you can preview the first chapter of a book before deciding whether or not to make a purchase.

The Amazon Kindle app for Windows Phone 7 is a free download from the Zune Marketplace. Scan the Microsoft Tag code (after the break) with your phone for a hassle-free install.
