Seriously, if a group of Chinese coders can implement better PDF viewing, and support for many file formats (such as DJVU, EPUB), why can't Amazon? Surely it's not because they lack the resources.

They need to release a real 3rd Generation Kindle DX, with Wi-Fi.

I suspect that they will probably release a new DX first before a k4 and I bet they do something similar to what they did the last time:
slap the old hardware (in this case k3) into the new shell.
(it's a good, cheap way for them to create hype and build anticipation for their real money maker- the 6" kindles.)
it'll look like a 4th gen but really be a 3rd gen, just like the DXG looks like the 3rd gen but really is 2nd gen.
meh.. they kinda tricked us the last time but it shouldn't happen again.
we should know what to expect now.
