JBC $500 vs Kindle $379.
Although some second hand kindle DX'es go from 192 all the way up to $465 (almost same price as JBC)!
Can you believe that on amazon there are sales people selling a more expensive second hand than new??
The extra options are well worth the price, Kindle's missing SD cardreader slot is a big turnoff for me!
I dislike companies that try to work with a closed system.
I also dislike the DX keyboard and it's low battery life for e-ink.
Although, the battery life of the kindle is about the same as for the JBC. It's 1 week with wifi on. The JBC is 21 days wifi off,which is about the same as the kindle dx.
Really the only 2 things the DX has better is a whiter background, and the somewhat cheaper price. Ow, and the WORKING wifi on the kindle (JBC's wifi is still quite useless)!
