Amazon eReader Kindle DX Specs
May 7, 2009 | In: Amazon Kindle, Handhelds PDAs
We briefly described Amazon’s newest Kindle, the larger DX, Wednesday before the Amazon press conference, but we need to dip in a bit further and check out the eReader’s specs.
Besides the larger 9.7-inch screen and the $489 price tag, the DX will make it easier than the previous and smaller Kindle models to view newspaper and magazine articles due to the sheer size. Textbooks will also be much more fun to read, as if they ever will, since the displayed resolution will finally match up.
Oh, and did we mention that the new Kindle DX can accept PDF files? Yes, thought that would get your attention.
You will also enjoy: 3.3GB hard disk memory, 16 shades of gray, page turn speeds up 20%, 3.5mm headphone jack, built-in stereo speakers and a dedicated USB 2.0. Anything missing? Well, yes, a more affordable price for one.
