Well it’s been over a week now that the brand new Kindle DX has been announced (I think). Brand new reading device from Amazon costs $489, a $130 jump from the Kindle 2. Is it worth it?

Personally I think that the price is quite hefty considering that it has only some minor improvements. Improvements include having a wider screen from 6inch to 9.7inch, an auto screen rotation feature also found in the Apple iTouch/iPhone series and a bigger hard drive (from 1,500 books to 3,500). This new version will still come with the free lifetime 3g internet access that it’s predecessor has been praised for.

Do I think this is worth the extra $130? Not exactly but I still couldn’t help myself from wanting to preorder one. It looks great, you’ll be able to read newspapers and magazines much easier and also the mention of cheaper textbooks. Apparently Amazon is trying to target College students with the DX and the results are still unclear since the price of textbooks on the Kindle is still in the midst.

So the Kindle DX –

Worth the pricetag? Probably not
Great? Yes.
Do I Want One? Yes
Conclusion: Damn I want one but it’s too damn pricey!
