A Kindle-DX showed up on my door step after about a month from its original order date. Must have nookitis. I chose the Kindle Dx Wireless Reading Device Free 3g 97 Display Graphite 3g Works Globally Latest Generation mainly because of the screen size, native PDF support, and I was accustomed to the Kindle user interface with my Kindle 1st generation. Plus the KDX is already available on the market. I really liked the K-1 but wanted more functionality and a few of its nuisances addressed.
You might consider the KDX an anachronism with the iThing is on its way in 60 or so days. In fact when I heard the IPad had a starting price close to the KDX I cringed and secretly wished I had waited until the Ides of March. After spending a few days with the Kindle Dx Wireless Reading Device Free 3g 97 Display Graphite 3g Works Globally Latest Generation I have come to a conclusion about that secret wish. Curious about what that conclusion is? (Probably not, neither am I actually.) Anyway, following is a quick bit of information on the KDX, with some comparisons with the Kindle 1 that I’ve used up till now and some things to think about when thinking about the iPad.
