Yes, you can download and use the Kindle app on the Dell duo. Amazon movie downloads work as well, it works just like a regular pc would just in netbook form.

Download the ebook reader app "Aldiko" or try "Laputa" both support epub ebook format and are very nice little reading apps you can get for free. I didn't like the Kindle app for this device as it never allowed me to just go straight into the book I was reading or the front of my Kindle page but instead would prompt me to register or put in my username and password and tell me that I have to be online to use it. I wanted an ebook reading app I could use offline and Kindle wasn't/isn't it. But, Aldiko and Laputa are two very fine ereading apps that support epub and let me read while not online.

You can download any book that Amazon sells, but it comes from Google Play app, not Amazon.I do not think the Kindle & Note 8 are compatible???

I can't give you a 100% answer, but my guess would be yes. As much as I dislike iPads, I can't imagine Amazon writing an ap that wouldn't work on one of the most popular tablets on the market. I don't know what format kindle books come in so I can't say what Steve Jobs's judgemental opinion might have been, but I'm sure the movies can download in QuickTime or something similar that will play. I hope that helps, but, as someone who doesn't use either of those aps, I can't be 100% sure.

With 2.0 you can side-load android apps like the Kindle app.. also has good, free/cheap ebook readers you can download from App World

I did not buy Kindle fire HD because the reviews were clear Amazon had bloated it with adware. I bought a xoom because they are so clean of apps when you buy them. I too found my Amazon prime videos will not play on it. Now we all know they could make an app for it but nope. They really really want to sell you the 24 hr "hard sell" pop-up machine that is the Kindle android. If anybody finds a way to watch prime videos on Xoom, I'd be really pleased.

I purchased this tablet over 3 years ago. One of the original apps which came with the tablet is a book reading app and several books. Also, I downloaded the Kindle app from Amazon, and have purchased several dozen books and magazines from the Kindle store. Check your apps to see if Kindle is present. If not, go to Kindle store and download. The app also works on desktop and laptop PCs.

I never downloaded Kindle books, You can get an Android app to do this. I love my tablet, It has became a big part of my everyday life...I purchased the keyboard which gives me extra power and usb port There are a ton of apps for android...email music movie's documents anything you need is on this tablet just download the app.

Hey amazon prime team, you are losing another customer here if you are not fixing your android ics video problems. We pay and like to watch prime on any mobile device, not just the kindle. Tying prime to your hardware only is foolish. Reconsider this approach, please.

I am using the stock software that came with it. The Kindle app was preloaded, but for some reason I cannot log in. When I try, it says 'Please check wifi connection' even though I can browse the internet just fine. It's frustrating b/c I can't log in to read any of my books.

Kindle uses an Android system but my experience is that it will only accept apps loaded through the Kindle Store. Easy enough go to the kindle store and search for it and try and download the app before you buy.

No, there isn't such app for the this device. So you cannot directly read an amazon ebook using this device or any other ebook reader except the kindle. You will need a special software to first unlock the kindle ebooks and another one to convert it into the usual epub or pdf format. After that you can use any ebook reader to read your book.

The kindle app is available for Android that is able to load your library from amazon and allows you to purchase more books. I use it all the time to read magazines and books I have purchased from amazon.

MusicLvr, The Kindle is not a computer, it's an ebook reader, so don't expect it to do what the Aspire does. The reason you see the poor reviews is that about the only people to report back are the ones with problems. I've had my Kindle since October and absolutely love it. I currently have about 250 book on it. If you really want to research the Kindle, may I recommend that you visit: http://www.kindleboards.com/index.php - it will open your eyes. Can you download books on an Aspire One, the same as Kindle? - Yes and no. The Kindle uses a proprietary file format that cannot be opened by Windows, so you will not be able to buy Amazon books and read them on the Aspire. However, there are thousands of books available elsewhere in other formats (txt, doc, pdf, prc, mobi, etc.) that you can download to your computer (many of them for free) and read. If you look around, you can probably find a free ebook reader for your computer for those formats that Windows doesn't open itself (prc, mobi, and mayby a few others), but you won't (at least at this time) find one to open the Amazon books. So, here's the thing - the Aspire is a Windows computer. It will open and let you read any file it recognizes. The Kindle is NOT a computer - it's a reader; it doesn't use Windows. Check out the above website - you can ask all of the questions you want and you'll probably get better and maybe more accurate answers.

Yes, download the Kindle app from the Google store and the from the Amazon account, download the books to your pad. I have it on mine and have access to all the books Ive purchases on Amazon

GetJar is there to download apps, Its kinda sucky, But you can use the Amazon App store to download from assuming you have an Amazon account. It likes to black screen on follow up uses (like after restarting and such) but you can clear the App data or cache and it will work again, Odd I know, But Coby isnt the best Tablet as i have sadly learned. Returned mine within a month.
