I love my DXG and, after +12 months with one, I don't think I could ever go back to a smaller 6" e-book reader. My wife has a K3, loves it, but I cannot stand it. The extra $190 I spent on it compared to a K3 was well worth it imho. The few pdf's (sometimes just a few pages) that don't play well with it (and often do not play well on my 15" PC monitor either), I just print out.

My guess is that there will be a new DXG wifi/3G touch introduced in the near future (within ~12 months) for ~$289. Amazon is already setup to produce lots of 9.7" pearl e-ink screens so I doubt that they will totally abandon it.

Cheers,
Tom
