What can you do with an IREX 800 with PDFs that you cannot do with a Kindle DX?
Any suggestion that IREX will be available in Best Buy soon? I need to buy something to take on my Asian trip next week and I'm being offered a Kindle DX Global for $375

And right now, it's way more likely for me to take Sony 900 or iRex 800 on a trip than Kindle DX. Kindle DX can't do anything at all with PDFs, which already is a showstopper to me.
But the good thing is: Each unit has slightly different focus. So each of us will find a gadget for his specific demands.
