Because the lines will cut off, yes, plus Amazon bookstore has the best computer selection I've seen, compared to O'Reilly.
However, Kindle for iOs, using an iPad, does exactly the same. And jumping between chapters is way easier and faster. Trust me, I've been there, done that before, know what I'm saying.
But if you will find yourself reading more novels and pure text books and more frequently, a 6 inch eink device is better, in my opinion. Your wrist will more comfortable after a while and is faster turning pages than a DXG, because the Kindle 3 has a more recent firmware, even the battery life is better on 6 inch eink devices, we're talking about 3 weeks to a month.
