@blankets1453 from what i've read, it does zoom in now. also, you could rotate the kindle and the pdf will adjust itself to fit the long side of the DX. I just ordered one yesterday. it should be shipped monday! i'm so excited!
Have an iPad but I might be having to sell it here soon because I just got a MacBook air! I's this product worth the money and a good replacement for ereading? I want a bigger screen which is why I am looking at the DX why I want to
i got one of these things for Christmas last year and I absolutely love it. It came in really handy when I went on a long car trip last year. The books aren't badly priced for the most part either.
Love it, and i love how the music plays. Can you listen to music while reading? (sometimes i like the background music). And today i just wondered can you read Manga in Kindle?
Hey I've been looking at a lot of reviews of the Kindle as I'm looking at buying the latest version (Kindle 3 DX) but didn't mind seeing older reviews. That was the best review I have seen so far for the Kindle. Thank you.
For $380 I am amazed it is limited to B&W. I was looking at the kindle for reading and reporting. However, B&W is what 19th century newspapers (and todays) are printed in. This makes the kindle terrible for comics and graphic novels, not to mention e-mags.
At this point I would rather pay the $500 for the HP slate (just say no to apple) so I can have a color e-reader. Not to mention windows 7 touch and support for actual apps, rather then apples limited apps.
excellent review man. I also see you're unbiased and not afraid to suggest the IPAD if it's more suited for your viewers.
PRIMARILY I want an IPAD/Kindle for reading ebooks/pdf/doc/docx files, but I would certainly not mind it to do other things. Since I am a big fan of all in one electronics the IPAD is appealing to me in the sense that I have played some really amazing game apps on the iphone and I always wondered what they looked like on the IPAD, but the cost... What do you suggest?
@hckia Well, if you're only going to use the prospective device for reading, and that's it, then the best choice is the Kindle.
But if you envisage yourself using the device for more than just a reading device, then clearly iPad is the way to go. Just be careful on how you spend money on the apps, only get the best ones, by Google(ing) reviews.
@CH1NO18 ipad is not an ebook reader, so it has no sense make a compare. IPAD has a battery which has to be recharged after one day, the kindle... after 2 weeks. Kindle is more restful for your eyes, like read on a paper, IPAD not...
If you look for a reader, to read ebooks, best choice is the kindle dx imho
nd what r the things i have to pay fr excluding of course the kindle. Srry is just that i want to get it but i really wanna make sure is not a rip off.
I take it the new Kindle DX has the zoom feature for pdf's. I really want an e-reader with good pdf support and so far the new DX is the best, but it's so damn expensive!
@AndersRodrig Sure. Well, if you throw the Kindle DX around, I'm sure it will break. I handle my Kindle with care, and nothing has gone wrong with it yet. I also purchased Square Trade Insurance, which means they will replace my Kindle DX (one time) with no questions asked.
Since the shipping costs are exorbiant, I suggest to look at an iPad beacuse it can do a hell of a lot more, but if you only want a book-reading device, the DX is best.
@niyadito Umm no it isn't. This looks like a real page because of the e-ink,non backlit screen. This is by far the better reading experience. The iPad isn't a fucking
e-book so why do idiots constantly compare them. Fuck the iPoo
OK! I didn't buy the last one, waiting for what was surely to be a color version like the iPad! What the hell is wrong with Kindle? Magazines in black and white? 1001 Arabian Nights, that has beautiful color plates...BLACK AND WHITE! Sorry, the iPad wins here!
@dpmduran iPad is an inferior book reading experience. For reading, this is by far the better, more comfortable experience. LCDscreens like the iPad strain your eyes alot more when reading text
thanks man, great review! I love how it also applies the dictionary function, internet download sites and MP3/Book Reading capabilities. The other e Readers I've seen seem a bit rudimentary in comparison to these three defining characteristics.
I have some pre-downloaded pdf books which I've been able to upload through a USB port to my Mothers e Reader and I notice you said that there wasn't a USB port on the Kindle. How then would I load my pdf's onto it?
Thanks kp, I found the instructions for changing the default screensavers on my kindle Dx; just another couple of questions: 1) where can I find screensavers with the resolution needed, and 2) is it true that if I download an update from Amazon, it can represent a problem. Thanks.
@jrodriguezquiros Im sure if you Google around, you could find some custom tailored wallpapers, but I just photoshopped my picture to the DX's resolution. Also, Amazon won't bother you with updates, and with my experience, it doesn't change the wallpaper.
@jrodriguezquiros Why would you want screensavers on your kindle? If you are not using it, you are not looking at it, so what's the point? It's not like it has anything to do with actually saving the screen anymore.
Thank you kp, although I am an Apple Fan (have 3 mac in my home) your review of the Kindle DX helped me decide on buying it, given I just need a good ebook reader. Your reviews are excellent and I enjoy them very much. I have one question, how do I go about changing the screensaver's to other I prefer? I would appreciate your explanation. Thanks once again.
Google the term "How to change Kindle DX screensaver", and click on the first result. They provide excellent instructions, and I used these to change my screensaver easily.
Great review! I own a Kindle and an ipad. While the ipad is awesome in what it can do, it totally sucks as an e-reader, unless you are indoors or in a dark place since sunlight completely washes out the ipad's screen. The kindle will always be an awesome e-reader!
