Speculation around the internet was that Amazon would release Kindle for Android around July 21 (when the
Samsung Vibrant will hit the market, as it will have Kindle for Android pre-installed). Today, though, seems to be the day for announcements at Amazon and Kindle for Android is now available to download.
