The DX is a fine reader. I just sent mine to Afghanistan with a friend. My Mother uses hers on a daily basis. It works great.
There are some downsides, the software is not going to be updated again. I suppose there might be some small chance that it gets updated but I would be beyond surprised. It is heaveier and harder to carry in smaller bags. There is no WiFi option.
The pros, a lot more words on the page. That was what got me.
Personally, I have been reading a ton on my iPad. I'll use my K3 when I am outside on vacation. My friend had a choice between the DX and K3 and choose the DX. I am fine with the smaller screen so it is not a big deal.
