Below are some simple instructions on how I streemlined my and SAMs steps for finding and buying kindle books on iDevices. I know many know this but for those who don't...
I first logged into my amazon account in safari, went into my wish list by triple 2 finger tapping item chooser and putting wi in the text field. Then I double tapped on wishlist to go to the link on the page, double tapped to activate the link and when my wishlist page loaded I went to utilities and saved the page to my home screen. I have the kindle app with the amazon app and my wishlist icon and finding and wish listing them in the amazon app, then buying them via my amazon.com wishlist shortcut and then playing them in the kindle app is a dream Doing efective searches in the amazon app is good if you choose to only search for kindle books, select the right book category etc. once you double tap on a book, you can read basic information and at or near the bottom you will find add to wishlist. If you double tap on the total or price you will see details like book description reviews and publishing info.
