I am very disappointed with this new Kindle DX release. We are getting:

New color (cosmetic)
Higher contrast (nice)
Price drop (doesn't count as it was already overpriced)

I was really looking forward to a DX with a touch screen (without affecting contrast) minus million buttons. I guess I will have to wait for Kindle 3 or next sony release.

I am surprised they still haven't caught up with Sony. All Sony got to do is to figure out how to keep the touch panel without affecting visibility and add it to a bigger reader.
