In your opinion, is the upgrade to the Touch worth giving up the screen size of the DX.
The Touch has the touch interface and the latest software. It also has a better screen. However, it doesn't have the 3G of my DX and the screen is half the size. However, I very rarely even use the 3G and the larger size is really only a real benefit if I'm reading PDFs, which I also very rarely do. So, it seems that I have the more expensive and heavier DX when I don't value the benefits that much.
I should be able to sell my DX with leather cover for around $199 and I can buy the Touch for $99.
I'm leaning toward getting the Touch. What are your thoughts?

The touch screen is the same. Perhaps, won't know until it comes out, it could even be a little worse as some people have found in comparing the Kindle NT with their old Kindle 3s. I ordered a touch but am keeping my DX. For the money I would get I'd rather keep it as a second reader.
Good luck.
