However, it's a new technology so will need a few generations to get it right. I don't see it as a Kindle3 Killer either. Will it challenge the Kindle DX? Maybe. Will be interesting to watch how it does.

I don't see why it should affect the KindleDX at all. What the KindleDX brought to the table was a larger display and support for viewing PDF files. It was specifically intended to address the education market, where textbooks are available as PDFs if they are available electronically at all, and need a larger display to effectively view them without painful sideways scrolling.
I don't see many people who might buy a KindleDX buying one of these instead.
