| THe Amazon Kindle DX The Kindle DX, manufactured by Amazon Inc., is one of 4 that makes up the Kindle family. Other models include the Kindle 1, Kindle 2 and Kindle 3. The prices for the Kindle range from $139 to $379 for the Kindle DX. Some versions of the Kindle are sold out on Amazon, however, the DX is available. One new option for purchasers of the DX is that it can be shipped internationally. Features of the new Kindle DX include:
- Free 3G to download unlimited books.
- A virtual E-Ink screen, made for higher contrast.
- A 9.7'' screen.
- No-glare screen for reading in sunlight.
- Only 1/3rd of an inch, as thin as most magazines.
- A long battery life; read a book for up to a week before having to recharge.
- Holds up to 3500 documents for reading.
- You can read your favorite books on all your favorite devices using the connective USB cord. Connect to your Droid, Blackberry, PC, iPhone, Mac or iPad.
- Post messages on Facebook and post Twitter updates.
- 3G available in over 100 countries.
- Built in PDF reader.
- Have the Kindle read the book out loud to you.
- 630 thousand books, newspapers and documents are available for download.
- Over 1.8 million post-copyright books are available.
- Read previews of books before buying.
- Built in search for the book you are reading.
- Wireless access to Wikipedia.
The Kindle is useful for people not as sophisticated with technology. Unlike the iPod or Apple devices, the Kindle DX is ready to go out of the box. No connecting to a computer, no downloads, no system updates required. Tun it on, download a book and start reading! The Kindle DX was announced on May 6th, 2009, with a list price of $489. It was released on June 10, 2009. The Graphite model was released on July 7, 2009 at a price of $379. The major difference between these two is that there is 50% higher contrast on this model. I would recommend the Kindle Graphite for one simple reason. It is a better version than the regular DX and it is $110 cheaper. Amazon user ratings rate it a 4/5, but I am going to rate it a 4.5 due to it's large amount of features and large capacity. Also, an additional highly rated feature for me is the long battery life. This allows the user to take the Kindle and not take the charging equipment with it. I would say the only con is the reported weakness of the Kindle. It is susceptible to be damaged by short drops and falls. Overall, go get th Kindle if you want to be able to read books without carrying them and you aren't exactly tech-savvy. |
