Amazon’s Kindle app for iPad has found its way into the App Store just in time for tomorrow morning’s device launch. Like Kindle apps for other platforms, the iPad app [iTunes link] includes Amazon’s Whispersync technology, which syncs your last page read, bookmarks, notes and highlights across devices.

The exciting part, however, is all of the iPad-specific features, including new page turning animations, a library view with pinch, zoom and scrolling support, and adjustable screen brightness. The latter attempts to address the “but how will it work in sunlight?” question that has hounded the iPad’s intention to function as an e-reader (and is, at the moment, considered a winning element of Amazon’s Kindle device).

Amazon adds a bit more color to this feature in a release issued this evening, writing that, “Customers can choose to dim iPad’s screen within the app to make reading easier regardless of the ambient light or time of day. Readers can also choose from three different background colors and alter the font color and size to customize the reading experience and help ease the strain on their eyes.”
