Kindle DXG on sale for $259!!!
Wow, Amazon are now selling the DXG for only $259 ($120 below list price). Pretty good deal for a 9.7 inch e-ink reader inho.
http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-DX-Wire...2128003&sr=1-1 Almost makes me want to buy another one, lol! Cheers, Tom |

Would have been nice if this had been one year ago, when I bought mine.

That is almost tempting. Where I work we deal with a lot of PDF specifications and the larger screen would be perfect. Time will tell.

I am so very tempted, especially with my Boox M90 being such a pain to operate.
eta: I just remembered I have $60 in Amazon GCs from swagbucks, and a $10 credit Amazon gave me for an item being late, so I just ordered a DX.... $189 after using all of this..... Last edited by pidgeon92; 11-24-2011 at 01:56 PM. |

I saw M90 two weeks ago and was pretty impressed with its handling of PDFs. Now I ordered DX (and I'm planning to install K3 software on it), but I'm still not sure whether it was a good way or I should rather buy M90. |

Mine is already on the way. I don't know what kind of petite actors Amazon hired, but DXG looks much smaller in person than the advertising photos.

That thing is so big shouldn't the battery last like 6 months? What's with the 2-3 week battery rating?

Compared to the Kindle 3 it's fairly big. I havent' seen a picture with the Kindle 4 beside that thing, but I can't imagine carrying that around. |
