Samsung and Amazon team up to make special Kindle app

So the Kindle application is free to download for all Android users.

But it looks like Samsung and the online retailing mega-giant have joined forces to create a Kindle app specifically designed for Galaxy devices.

So what does the special edition of the application give Galaxy users that the regular one doesn’t?

Users will enjoy Samsung exclusive book deals that are only available to those who have the app. You’ll get to pick a free book every month, but the choice is limited to four new titles (selected by the folks over at Kindle.)

The other features are all in-line with the standard Kindle application. A free book every month is a pretty cool incentive, however, it would have been way better to let users have a larger selection of books to choose from. It’s hard to imagine that from a choice of four titles every month, that everyone who owns a Galaxy device will get a book that they were truly interested in buying.

But hey, it’s hard to argue with free, right? Especially if you were planning on buying a Galaxy device anyway.
