The Kindle DX is basically a supersized Kindle II, but it comes with a number of interesting improvements.

Years ago I used to read books from Project Gutenberg on my Pocket PC. The screen was small, but it had plenty of battery. The Kindle is interesting but I refuse to buy into any closed ecosystem. I suspect the reason the Kindle DX doesn't have a SD slot is to make it harder to load non-Amazon content. I will wait for the Chinese to do what they do best, copy and refine someone else's product. Kindle knock-offs can't be that far away. They will not be locked to Amazon.
