I currently have a Astak PocketPro (which I love) but it's small and kind of annoying to read for long periods of time. From the reviews I have read it seems that the DX is an excellent choice with the weight being a draw back. Will I be able to drag and drop my current PDF files to read on the Kindle, even though they are non DRM? Can I buy books from any site as long as they PDF, or do I have buy from Amazon?
Briefly ..
If you read Text books (txt, azw, prc, mobi, tpz): then Kindle 3 with 6" display is more light and is more comfortable.

If you read PDFs, scanned books, magazines, comics or newspaperes; so Kindle DX/DXG with 9.7" display will be really better.
