I held an ipad in my hands yesterday at the best buy here in queens and the dx. yes there is a difference. but....the dx is already at the point where you are not going to hold it with one hand anyway...and with my case on the dx? I think it was actually heavier then the ipad. page turns? much faster, you can just almost flip through the book. a slider bar too on the bottom to rapidly move about. I do wonder what battery life the ipad would have with wireless off. I have only had my dx for a few days but keeping wireless on, and moving about frequently in a technical book along with moderate internet browsing brought my battery to almost out by bed time yesterday. and now I find I can't use table of contents on the pdfs? oouuuccchhhhh.
sure the kindle is better outdoors (but worse for bedtime reading) and has somewhat battery life but overall from what I can tell...
go for the ipad and just use the kindle reader for the books you already have.
