Kindle DXG on sale for $259!!!
Wow, Amazon are now selling the DXG for only $259 ($120 below list price). Pretty good deal for a 9.7 inch e-ink reader inho.

http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-DX-Wire...2128003&sr=1-1

Almost makes me want to buy another one, lol!

Cheers,
Tom

Would have been nice if this had been one year ago, when I bought mine.

A good deal if you are looking for a 9.7 inch e-book reader.

That is almost tempting. Where I work we deal with a lot of PDF specifications and the larger screen would be perfect. Time will tell.

It also says "while supplies last", so this could be the last we'll see of the DX.

I am so very tempted, especially with my Boox M90 being such a pain to operate.

eta: I just remembered I have $60 in Amazon GCs from swagbucks, and a $10 credit Amazon gave me for an item being late, so I just ordered a DX.... $189 after using all of this.....

You're going to replace Boox M90 with DX?

I saw M90 two weeks ago and was pretty impressed with its handling of PDFs. Now I ordered DX (and I'm planning to install K3 software on it), but I'm still not sure whether it was a good way or I should rather buy M90.

Mine is already on the way. I don't know what kind of petite actors Amazon hired, but DXG looks much smaller in person than the advertising photos.

That thing is so big shouldn't the battery last like 6 months? What's with the 2-3 week battery rating?

Compared to the Kindle 3 it's fairly big. I havent' seen a picture with the Kindle 4 beside that thing, but I can't imagine carrying that around.
