This is true, but downloading on any kindle is tedious if you have to use the browser.

I have a kind of system for collecting article & distributing them to the proper device. It's almost automated -Google Reader, Instapaper, Read It Later, Flipboard and Reeder figure heavily in this process.

Basically, the KDX is old & tired. It doesn't do wifi. Its interface was not updated when the K3 interface was. It seems clear to me that it is going to be replaced.

If it weren't for the screen size, there would be not reason to buy it.
