Amazon Buys Stanza Maker
Lexcycle this afternoon said it had been bought out by Amazon. The deal puts the creator of the popular Stanza e-book app for iPhones under the wing of the creator of the Kindle reader but otherwise isn't expanded upon by either company, including the intent for future products or the financial terms of the takeover. Lexcycle vows that Stanza won't lose functionality for the book services it already offers, some of which are paid stores that compete with the Kindle bookstore.
