I expect it is only a matter of time before DX goes away, unfortunately.

Sure, it probably hasn't sold well, but let's be honest: Amazon also dropped the ball on it a long time ago. It was, after all, released over three (!) years ago and has not seen an update since. That's forever in the world of technology. Not to mention that it's big screen form-factor and thus more frequent PDF use would have really needed more power and better features. I expect an updated version might have at least fared a little better.

I hope the regular e-ink Kindle isn't next on the chopping block. Frontlit e-ink is not for everyone.
