It costs more simply because it has a bigger screen - that doesn't automatically equate to "top of the line" - and it isn't Amazon's newest e-reader - that would be the K3:

K1 : November 2007
DX : June 2009
K2 : February 2009
K2 (International) : October 2009
DX (International) : January 2010
DX (Graphite) : July 2010
K3 : August 2010

I can understand a sense of frustration seeing a newer product being given development time and updates, but that happens all the time in this modern world of fast changing technologies. It's just silly to talk about it being a candidate for Watchdog, though, a TV programme that publicises and calls companies to account for fraudulent and deceptive practices, excessively shoddy customer service, etc.
