I don't get it. In their guide they have the price as a negative, yet in their hands on they call the price "incredible". They also sound quite pleased with the device in their hands on and yet finish by saying that they "can't really hold it up in one hand"? I've had a Kindle DX and while it could be used one handed two hands were better, and propping it up/resting it on something was even better yet. So who on earth would expect to be able to hold this monstrosity in one hand when it's clearly meant to be laid down on something?

I'm very interested in this device but it just sounds too good to be true, I mean, it's only $10 more than I had paid for the DX, so what's the catch?
