Even if you could never justify spending three Bens on a Kindle, you can still partake in the mobile eBook revolution. Amazon Kindle for iPhone & iPod Touch (Free) is a new app that lets you buy and download Kindle books and read them on the go — without buying the $360 Kindle 2. In addition to having access to more than 240,000 books, the app lets you adjust text size, add bookmarks, and get free samples. If you already have a Kindle, the app’s Whispersync technology saves and synchronizes your bookmarks across your Kindle and your iPhone.

Street Fighter IV is the long overdue title in the ever ongoing fighting game series which has seen an endless amount of sequels but none of caught this much buzz since Street fighter II hit arcades back in 1991. While the game gets a graphic overhaul in 3D, the game goes back to its roots with the all the original fighters and the traditional 2D-style fighting mechanic coupled with the standard six button layout which should please old school fans and newcomers to the game. Capcom has also teamed up with MadCatz on a special edition arcade-style joystick as well as a six-button gamepad which you can check out after the jump. Available for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC on February 17th. Link: $40-$140

Touch Mix is a DJing application for the iPhone and iPod Touch that looks a lot like a miniature version of the popular ATTIGO TT touchscreen turntable we reported on earlier. The interface looks clean and easy to use, featuring two distinct track players, a crossfader, pitch control and sound effects. Each song’s waveform can also be manipulated by touch to mimic scratching and whatnot. The downside: the software is only compatible with ten exclusive tracks by producer deadmau5. Hopefully this software will get a wider release, as it looks like a potentially useful DJ tool.
