I bought my Kindle DXG less than a month ago. Now that the new Kindle has come out, I am not sure if I should keep it - I have a few more days to decide if I want to return it. I need a larger sized screen (I use it to read pdfs of technical papers/articles, which would be hard to do on the regular Kindle) but am concerned about whether an updated DX is in the works, leaving me with a much lower spec'ed DXG.
So do you guys think a new DX is on its way, with
1. Better battery
2. Wifi
3. Higher capacity drive (say 8GB instead of 4GB)
4. Faster page turns
5. The new 5-way controller
Of these, the one that I care about most are 1-3.
What makes me think a new DX is not in the works, at least within the next few months, is that they released the DXG only a month ago. But then, why would they have a product at more than twice the price, which is better only in one respect (larger screen) but is significantly inferior on multiple counts?
