Bigger, better screen. Super-thin. 4GB capacity (3,500 books). Wide selection of books, magazines, and blogs. Buying new titles is dead simple with the free, integrated cellular modem. Text-to-speech capability.
Very expensive. No touch screen. Interface could be more intuitive.

Abstract: Amazon continues to fix that which isn't broke by updating its Kindle with new features and more reading space. Now you can clear out those bookshelves you've been meaning to lose, plus look at PDFs in bold, beautiful gray scale. Oh well. At least you'...
Abstract: The Amazon Kindle DX could be the iPod of the book world, being a potential paradigm-shifting example of technology done right. Or it could be like the late, maligned Newton, which was a lousy idea that acted like an indelible geek tattoo on whoever was c...
Abstract: With the Apple iPad hoping to jump up and down on its toes, Amazon's dominance of the ebook market is under serious threat for the first time. The Kindle DX is the company's largest and newest reader to date, with a massive 9.7-inch screen (up fro...
Abstract: This is the larger version of the Kindle (reviewed around six weeks ago) A lot of the features are the same and should you already have some Kindle books you can view them on either unit, the main advantage more words per page....
The Amazon Kindle DX is a cool gadget. Personally I don't read that many books but as a PDF reader it's very handy although I could not justify the price tag just for that feature. If you get through a lot of book then the Kindle might be a better prop...
