In school they have a daily world events assignment, with the New York Times on the Kindle they can quickly find an article and complete there assignment. On a closing side note, my kids love it as well. With the Kindle, it compliments my schedule and is readily available when time arrives unplanned. I enjoy reading, but with life and work making time for reading forced planning and scheduling time to read. A digital book store experience of sorts.

I can get your blog on it which is great, would be nice if Amazon would make podcasts natively available with the blog subscription or at least a way to quickly get the pdf transcripts 2. A couple of reasons for my declared admiration for it 1. I do share the pains reported, small keyboard, large margins on the side, but beyond those minor annoyances I still love it. I admit being only 2 weeks into owning a Kindle, I am in a sort of honeymoon phase with it. I recently decided to get the smaller Kindle over the DX.

While the DX is large, its PDF support is so nice that I'm compelled to prefer the DX over the little one, for myself.

If you read fiction and rarely, if ever, need PDF support (or only need the basics) then get the little Kindle. If you're interested in a Kindle, and you read a lot of PDFs or non-Amazon eBooks, get the Kindle DX. I could totally see another Kindle that's in between sizes, but I know that'll never happen, which is a shame. By too small,I mean, the Kindle should have the SAME size and a larger screen. The Kindle DX is too big and the Kindle is too small. After having used both for a week, I am also. If you're torn between the two, it's understandable. The small-size Kindle 2 is fantastic for prose and horrible for charts, graphs and code. In English, this means if you're wanting to read technical books, you get a Kindle DX. First, no PDF support built in, and two, if it was converted to Kindle-format, it'd be destroyed. It would be totally NOT readable on the non-DX Kindle for two reasons. Here's a screenshot of a PDF taken from the Kindle DX.

I don't know what the real limitations of the PDF support are, but I'm sure they're improving it constantly, and the Kindle can update it's OS over the 3G network, so those updates will presumably just happen. The failures have only been on internal documents that have annotations and stuff. Rare, and usually it's because there's some advanced PDF feature being used that the Kindle doesn't support. It works for 95% of PDFs, but every once in a while I've had it fail. That means you can just plug it in over USB, copy a PDF and boom, you're viewing it. Effectively you can fit double the text on the page of the Kindle DX.Īlso, the Kindle DX has native PDF support. The 'so the' appears right in the middle of this screen. Here's the same book, same point, starting with 'morning' on the Kindle DX. Notice that it starts with the word 'morning' and ends with 'duration, so the.' Here's a screenshot taking from the Kindle 2 of a book. Also, the keyboard on the Kindle 2 uses far too much vertical space. There's easily enough room on the Kindle 2 to make the screen a 7' screen just by tightening up that space. There's just WAY to too much 'whitespace' between the edge of the kindle and the screen itself. I don't know what the technical limitations are and I don't really care. That's the space between the screen and the edge. The real tragedy of the Kindle is the bezel. Let's get serious on size and layout here. There's zero eye strain, or no more than a regular book. It's very very close to paper and once you've started reading you really do forget it's not paper. It's e-ink and it's totally unique when you see it. The screen on a Kindle is EXTREMELY clear. It's got 4gig internal storage which I've found is effectively unlimited. That's 1200 x 824 pixel resolution at 150 dpi. The Kindle DX is 10.4' x 7.2' x 0.38' and the screen is 9.7' (yes, nearly 10'!) diagonally. As a comparison, you monitor is likely 96dpi, possible 120dpi. It's got a 600x800 pixel display, so that's 167 dpi with 16 grays. The Kindle 2 is 8' x 5.3' x 0.36' but the screen is 6' diagonally. I own the standard-sized Amazon Kindle 2 - it's the little one in the picture on the right. I read it every night and have probably bought a dozen books with it, several newspapers and I read many dozen PDFs.

I'm absolutely thrilled with my Amazon Kindle.
