This was the device that started it all, the Kindle. Since its inception, Amazon took a few lessons to heart, reiterated the product and came up with the Amazon Kindle DX. In a PCWorld review of the device, they concluded:

“At $489, the Kindle DX will make consumers think hard before buying one (especially since highly functional netbooks can be had for substantially less). But it is also a very capable device that can benefit from a broadened scope. The more multipurpose Kindles can become without detracting from or minimizing their primary mission as electronic readers, the better-positioned they will be going forward.”
