Last time I had a shipping day estimate from Amazon, I received my Kindle even before the predicted ship date.  So it’s just a matter of days before we have the Kindle DX in our hands. Then we will see if it is worth the extra cash.

I like the idea of being able to read native PDF files with the Kindle DX. I also think that there is going to be a future in e textbooks. One thing I am enjoying with my current Kindle is the light weight portability, and the lack of clutter. All of my book shelves are full and I don’t want to make room for more. I also have been doing a lot of cleaning and organizing, and it was a lot of work dusting all of those books on the shelf.

At least with the Kindle I can still read whatever I want, without having another book, I have to physically store somewhere in my house. Plus, if you are reading several books at the same time, the Kindle will keep your place on each book. So it’s easy to switch books according to your mood.

The Kindle DX should have all of the benefits of the Kindle, with a few more added advantages. Although the Kindle still has the compact size and more compact price. For those who pre-ordered a DX the wait is almost over.
