Q. I recently purchased a couple books on amazon kindle store. When I click to buy it gives me options but none of which are the kindle app. It's just not showing up and either are the books. Does anyone know how to fix this?
A. You need the Kindle app on your iPhone.
The Kindle app must be registered to your Amazon account (let the phone connect to the net to submit the registration).
Now, if you bought Kindle books previously, just go to Manage Your Kindle at Amazon and you will see a list of your Kindle purchases. To the right of each choose "Deliver to my..." and choose your Kindle for iPhone app. (I recommend you first open the Kindle app and connect your iPhone to Wifi with so it doesn't cost you minutes to receive the books - they can be delivered over Wifi or cell)

Kindle vs. Apple iBooks app?
Q. What are the pros and cons of both of them? Which do you prefer to read? What has better features in the app itself? I'm talking about an amazon kindle not the app...compared to the app you can get on an iTouch or iPad (iBooks). Just in general which is better. And give specifics please. Thank you!
A. The Kindle really is only an eReader. It's built specifically to do that well, but nothing else. Thus, it's a lot cheaper than an iPad.
An iPad is a multi-purpose multimedia device, and is A LOT more expensive.
I bought the high end Kindle for $189 vs. $500+ for an iPad.
If I had already had an iPad, I would have just downloaded the Kindle App for iPad and not purchased a Kindle.
How to buy books on kindle app?
Q. I ordered a kindle e ink display and I should be getting it tomorrow sometime. I was just wondering, is there any way I can download/buy books from the kindle app on my iPhone 4S? It is just showing me samples of books but no option to buy them. Any advice?
A. Based upon what I've read, in-app purchasing is disabled because Apple requires a portion of the profits of any in-app purchase on iOS devices. The workaround is to use the iPhone version to download a free sample of a book, then once you finish the sample it connects you to a page where you can buy the book. Frankly, it's a lot easier to just use a computer to do the purchasing.
