Hi, I am a new owner of the Kindle DXG. I used to wait so long for new version Kindle DX, but thanks to this forum and the user Yifanlu I have decided to buy current Kindle DXG. My procrastinate was based on old firmware. I am going to use my new reader generally to read pdf files, so size for me is very important. English is not my native language, so I also need easy to use dictionary. I know that life is not perfect, but Kindle DX could have better service for dictionary in pdf files like Kindle 3 has. So I was waiting, until now...

Yifanlu, you are a great man, support others with great solutions. Amazon should pay you, because I buy my Kindle only due to possibility to use dictionary on my pdf files on 9.7” e-ink screen. Who knows what I will buy, if I have to wait a couple of months?

Kindle DXG is my first reader, so I have to learn it first. Then I will use Jailbreak and Yifanlu’s Beta 4 updater to Kindle 3 firmware. I will write here how it works.
