Hi!

This may have been asked before and I just can't find it. I apologize if that's true. But...

I'm debating which size Kindle I want, the Kindle 3 or the Kindle DX. The Kindle 3 is obviously smaller, easier to carry, easier to hold in one hand, while the Kindle DX has a larger screen and can display more text at one time. Not considering cost or differences in features, which screen size is better for reading? Which is more comfortable to hold while reading?

It's hard to know without trying each of them a few hours each. Your thoughts are appreciated!
