I have to agree somewhat with Palquito.

I don't think that the DX is that much of an improvement over the K2, to me it is more of a device that is targeted to a different audience. However, I think that Amazon was a little underhanded by not releasing both readers at the same time so that potential buyers could size them up and decide which is best for them. I probably would have still bought the K2 since I am more of a recreational reader, and the size and price of the DX would have been an issue. But I was never given that opportunity to shop and compare.

There may be college students or other professionals that would have bought the DX, but bought the K2.

I am completely happy with the K2 and have no plans on getting the DX. I expect another generation of the Kindle next year and will probably jump then.
