I dont view that as a big concern. You can order Kindle books using the Safari on the iPhone and have them sent directly to your phone so I dont see it as a big deal at all. I suspect it was more to do with the cost of building the browsing and stuff into the Kindle app. Why should Amazon do that when it really isnt needed. I think people are always looking for conspiracies, but I dont think this was anything other than expediency and cost considerations at work.
