GoSale Description
Amazon's Kindle has been a huge success since it's inception in 2007. With a plethora of books, magazines, and newspapers immediately available with Amazon's wireless service, they successfully bridged a gap between technology and print content that only the mega-retailer could accomplish. The amazingly successful Kindle boasted a special screen to mimick paper (rather than looking like an illuminated screen) and featured a 6" screen and only 1/3" thick platform....

That was then, the DX is NOW
Gone is the 6" screen, replaced with a simply massive 9.7" that is almost the size of a standard sheet of paper. The huge library of ebooks, newspapers, and magazines continues to increase as Kindles are gaining a near mainstream status.

Go Green with Kindle
A subtle but important advantage to the Kindle is the savings in paper that it produces. With the ability to download newspapers daily as well as magazines and books, discarded print materials are a thing of the past. The small Kindle footprint also allows you to store approximately 3,500 books at any time! (The original Kindle "only" holds 1,500 books) This means you can travel light on vacation with thousands of books packed into a device that is only 1/3 of an inch thick. For die-hard readers, it will not only safe space, but save your back as well.

The Kindle DX also uses more advanced graphics for photo display. The 16bit Greyscale rendering is a big improvement over the original Kindle's 4bit rendering.
Features:
  • Carry Your Library: Holds up to 3,500 books, periodicals, and documents
  • Beautiful Large Display: 9.7" diagonal e-ink screen reads like real paper; boasts 16 shades of gray for clear text and sharp images
  • Auto-Rotating Screen: Display auto-rotates from portrait to landscape as you turn the device so you can view full-width maps, graphs, tables, and Web pages
  • Built-In PDF Reader: Native PDF support allows you to carry and read all of your personal and professional documents on the go

Here is what people are saying about the Kindle DX Electronic Reader with Massive 9.7" Screen
5 Star Rating  "great convenience"2009-11-20
- Reviewed By User: A3SF0ZIQPF6GK4
I bought this for myself for my husband to give me for Christmas. Naturally I have been using it from the moment it arrived. I love it. I travel alot and like to bring books along. Now I can carry a whole library. Books are a real load when the airlines restrict the number of pounds your bag can be. I have shelves of books which take up too much room in my house. I am beginning to donate books to free up space now that I can have most of what I want on my kindle. I have downloaded many classics for free, or almost free. The newer downloads are reasonably priced. I still have to buy books, as not everything is available for download. I like ancient Chinese literature and poetry, a rather obscure taste. But I found wonderful ancient Chinese literature available for downloading. And for nearly free too. Amazing. I also like the Kindle screen, the fonts, and the easy operation. It is pricy, but not so much if you buy alot of books.

The Kindle DX is the best e-reader device currently available.

Even after the announcement of the Nook the Kindle still has the best selection of books at the best prices. Before buying a competing device check out the availability of books from your favorite authors and the prices of those books.
 
2 Star Rating  "BIG MISTAKE"2009-11-20
- Reviewed By User: A33DPMDQJ1Y2MH
Originally I bought the 6". I loved it. Did you read me? I loved it. I thought, one day I'll buy the 9" and use the 6" for travel. Anyway, I was going to the vet with a sick dog. I was loading the dog into the car and I put the 6" on the roof so that I could have my hands free. I rushed around to the driver's side got in and drove off. Presto! No more 6". Yeah, I know, DUMB. Well, I thought, I'll just buy the 9" now instead of waiting--BIG MISTAKE. That thing is heavy, ten minutes of holding the 9" and you think you're in a prison camp being forced to hold buckets of ice in your hands with your arms out stretched. It's murder. Sure it's easy to read but come on. The control keys are on one side only. The keyboard has embedded number keys (was that a great idea?) and did I mention it's heavy? OK, you get the picture. I did a dumb thing and now I have to buy the 6" again. A 9.7" is too big. Maybe an 7.75" would be OK.
 
5 Star Rating  "Kindle DX Wireless Reading Device - as a gift"2009-11-20
- Reviewed By User: A1L3XP1OIQDBXD
I purchased this item as a gift for my husband who is a big reader. He travels a lot. It is just like advertised, very easy to use, very easy to understand the directions. Downloads were fast. Setting up his account was simple.
 
5 Star Rating  "Please amazon, bring this great product to Europe"2009-11-20
- Reviewed By User: A1CTWH54WZ3OFJ
For the moment nobody in Europe can buy this great product because it's not possible to buy the kindle books. The reason I don't understand, but everybody is waiting for it!

It would be a dream to be able to download books straight into your kindle.
 
5 Star Rating  "Best Yet"2009-11-12
- Reviewed By User: AIIDBVAGD4L1N
I have owned all 3 kindles. I think that this is the best yet.
I love having no buttons on the left, that means I can pick up & carry the kindle without accidentally moving pages.
I wish it still had the wireless on/off switch.
I love the ability to change layout. I wish there was a larger font size.
I am a huge fan of the kindle and think it is well worth the cost.
