Thanks D;

I was hoping someone would report on the pc client but it's sad that it too is inaccessible.

How lovely that Amazon is maintaining approximately the same standards for their Kindle Mac client as for the PC one. I did get the client downloaded and I think I read some help, but nuttin else.

Subject: [VICUG-L] disappointing kindle for mac beta app and iphone app:

all;

Amazon has released a beta version of the kindle for mac app.  When I went to:
http://www.amazon.com/kindleformac
using my mac, there was no way to download the app.  I used windows to download it and when I installed it by dropping the app into my apps folder and running it, all I found with voiceover was the word register.  No matter what I did, I could not go further.

The results with the iphone app are not quite so bad, there, you can install the app but not read any content.
