PC users are now able to download and enjoy Amazon Kindle titles on their computer, removing the need for the wallet-busting Kindle reader.
A Mac version of the software, available to download from Amazon.com, is also promised but in the meantime you need a PC running Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, or Windows Vista or Windows 7 to use it.
The software allows users to download titles straight to their computer but currently lacks Kindle newspapers, magazines, and blogs.
Amazon says purchased books can also be read on a Kindle so you can still access your books on the move.
