 Kindle
Wireless Reading Device (6" Display, Global Wireless)
The Amazon Kindle announced in the spring of 2008 is an
electronic book reader. Initially priced at $399, the Kindle
sold out in a matter of days, according to Amazon. Unlike
earlier e-book readers, this tool appears to be a closer
approximation to a book, but a book on steroids.

 Kindle
DX Wireless Reading Device (9.7" Display, U.S. Wireless)
While the Kindle 2 has a 6-inch (measured diagonally) e-ink screen — roughly the area of a mass-market paperback book — the DX's 9.7-inch screen resembles a page from a typical hardback. Put another way, the DX flaunts 2.5 times more display space. More text on a page means more lines and, if you prefer, a bigger font, without having to turn the page as often. What does that mean for you? It's easier to read via the DX.
