- read content from external memory (SD card)
Having JB, I don't feel a pressing urge to buy 6" Kindle. However, I might consider buying a DX, as this format is much better for technical / academic books. But I am still waiting for the tablets / pads that Asus is going to introduce in the near future. It seems they will be much more versatile than Kindle.

I bought the DX to read pdf professional articles on as I was under the impression that I could use highlight and annotate with them. Sadly I can't.
