I also have a chance to compare my M92 with my colleague's Kindle DX, and also with my old Hanlin V3.

Hardware quality is exactly the same (superb). I wonder, how long M92's buttons will last... but all in all, all devices represent a high-range quality. (Certainly in the future there might be devices with far better use of materials, for example metal case etc. But currently these devices are built quite good.)

The software of Kindle DX is better written, or, software quality requirements / QA is better in the case of such a huge company. But: I have been a proud owner of an M92 for 5 days, and I had only very little problems with the software (firmware 1.7). Once the pen did not want to work, I had to restart the device with buttons. That's it.

But, the innovative features, usability of M92 are way better than that of Kindle DX: the highlighter pen, scribbling, merging scribbles with PDF, navigation bar are such features which are missing from Kindle a lot. So currently M92 is a way better choice -- if one does not miss the amazon store from his or her device.
