In spite of its price tag, I applaud Amazon for having introduced the Kindle DX. No matter how good the software of a 6" reader is, it will always be a 6" reader. The larger screens are a requirement for any serious use by academia. What is killing the Kindle DX especially from the results of university trials is the poor software that runs on it. If Amazon were to take the time to improve the software and enhance PDF support, the Kindle DX would be a more than capable device. The hardware support and physical dimensions are there. Hopefully, Amazon has acknowledged this and software updates coming soon will resolve most of these issues.
