Amazon: UK Music Downloads and US iPhone App
Apple Eclectic —
A couple of random Amazon stories for you here. Firstly, it looks like their MP3 Music Download service has been silently launched in the UK today. Tracks start at 59p each, with albums going from £3. And there’s a special app available to handle the downloading and iTunes insertion on the desktop. I’m about to give it a try so I’ll let you know how I get on. Hit the link below and we might get a small kick-back from your purchases — we haven’t been able to confirm or deny whether downloads are included in the Affiliate scheme.
Next we have the Amazon Mobile iPhone app. You’ll remember last week we ...
News: Amazon Mobile iPhone app lets users search via photo
iLounge | All Things iPod, iPhone, iTunes and beyond —
image Amazon.com has released its new Amazon Mobile application for the iPhone and iPod touch. The new application allows users to search and browse products offered by both Amazon and various third-party partners, access Customer Reviews, and make purchases using 1-Click Shopping. In addition, the app offers an experimental feature called “Amazon Remembers.” Users may snap a picture of an item using the iPhone’s camera, and then upload it to Amazon, which then tries to find products similar to the ones in the photos. When the user receives the results, they may purchase the item immediately, or “remember” it for later reference in his/her Amazon account. Amazon ...

Amazon Remembers Forgets Barcode Scanner
Digital Daily —
There’s a new beachbead in Amazon’s (AMZN) campaign to commandeer sales from competing retailers: Apple’s (AAPL) iPhone. This morning the retailer uncrated Amazon Mobile, an iPhone/iPod Touch application that allows users to browse its wares and those of associated retailers like Target and Macy’s as well. The app supports Amazon’s standard features — customer reviews, “1-Click Shopping” and whatnot — as well as an intriguing new one. Called “Amazon Remembers,” it allows users to search for products they’d like to purchase by photographing real-world products. Testing Amazon ...
First Look: Amazon.com app for iPhone/iPod touch
The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) —
Filed under: Retail, iPhone, App Store, iPod touchToday, the online retailer Amazon.com launched its first iPhone/iPod touch application. Previously, Amazon offered a version of its site that was optimized for MobileSafari. Amazon has added some pretty nifty features in the iPhone application that could make shopping online a lot easier. When you first launch the application, you are presented with your wish list, and the phrase "Get Yourself a Little Something." From this home tab, you can also see your signed-in username. When you tap the search tab, you are able to type in a search string just as you can on the ...
Amazon Mobile for the iPhone shops—and remembers
Infinite Loop —
Recently, the iPhone application Mazo (which provides mobile access to all things Amazon) was rejected not by Apple, but by the online retailer. The speculation about why ends today, with the release of Amazon's own iPhone/iPod touch application, unimaginatively named Amazon Mobile (iTunes Store link, free, only available in the US store). This is somewhat unexpected, because Amazon has an excellent iPhone-optimized version of its website, so there is really very little need for a client-side application. Then again, although the iPhone-optimized amazon.com is no slouch, Amazon Mobile is fast maybe even faster than the desktop version of amazon.com. ...

FinalPrice shopping app released

Filed under: Software, iPhone, iPod touch, App ReviewFor those of you who still frequent brick and mortar stores, Jimmi Rehman has released the new FinalPrice 1.0 shopping app for the iPhone/iPod Touch at 99 cents. It requires 3.0 software to run. This app is a useful one-trick-pony. If you find a sale, the idea is to have your iPhone figure out how much something will cost after the item is discounted and after adding your local tax. The calculations are solid but I had some trouble with the interface. Tapping the info button didn't work well at first. I had to tap it a number of times using various amounts of ...
