Apple [AAPL] has just launched a new application for the iPhone called Apple Store. It’s a VERY simple idea that brings the online Apple Store to the iPhone in the shape of an application.

Amazon has launched new firmware for the Amazon Kindle. The new version is 2.5 and brings a few new features to the eBook reader. The update has passed through the final stages of testing and is now being pushed out to Kindle owners over the next few weeks. Amazon suggest you just keep your wireless connection switched on to automatically receive it.
We are not 100% convinced this is actual game play on the new Microsoft XBox 360 Kinect. The demo shown on video is for Starwars and it shows a demo of the game running with a guy supposedly controlling it through the new XBox 360 Kinect (previously known as Project Natal).
