Large Screen E-ink Screen E-Book Reader
IMO an excellent if aging E-book reader which also has audio capability. The large screen size of 9.7" diagonal measurement means either more text is available per book page or the font size can be increased, advantageous for some readers. The downside is that this is heavier and bulkier than other Kindle e-readers and IMO deserves a dedicated hard case for carrying or a cover and a dedicated slot in a briefcase or large tablet carrying case. What may be considered an advantage or disadvantage, depending on the user, is that it does not have a touchscreen so all tasks are performed with the keyboard and the 5 way joystick controller and paddle switches along the right side of the screen. No left side switches, unlike it's close cousin the Kindle 2, so this one is designed primarily for right handed users apparently. There are three models in two basic generations. The early units are all white and are marked as Model Number D00611 on the back and have serial numbers starting with B004. Later units are Model Number D00801 and have serial numbers starting with B005 (white units) or B009 (cobalt units). The big difference between the units is that the early units have USA only 3G communications and the later units have worldwide 3G communications. Also some of the early units may not have the e-ink Pearl screen which lowers contrast slightly. No way to tell that other than a visual comparison with a later unit or a disassembly and knowledge of part numbers. You may see some units mis-listed in that the listings claim 3G and Wi-Fi communications. Incorrect as no Kindle DX units were made with Wi-Fi per Amazon. At a minimum a DX Kindle is going to be three years old so may need a new battery. There are refurbishers out there or there are videos available on how to open the unit and replace the battery. Damaged screens are replaceable too but i will leave that to the experts as I am told that there are LOTS of small screws involved. The large screen is vulnerable so at least to me the fitting of a protective cover is worthwhile. I am not sure if a so called screen protector is worthwhile as it looks to me like it might protect from scratches but not impact. Due to a relatively minor screen impact I had to have my screen replaced in one Kindle DX. If size, weight and portability are primary concerns then the Kindle DX is not the way to go. ALL other Kindles have 6" diagonal screens and weigh lots less, and some other brands of e-readers have been made with 5" diagonal, 7" diagonal and other screen sizes so there are multiple choices out there, including on ebay.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Regret getting this item.
The item was received VERY fast. That portion was great. The screen had a line on the RHS as listed. What wasn't mentioned was that the speakers were non functional. I opened the case and reconnected the speakers. After doing so, the screen went black. Lessen learned - if there is a stripe on the screen, that is indicative of a bad screen. It's about to go.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Older Product - still delivers
Despite being too old for touchscreen technology the larger screen size and tactile keyboard make up for that. I wish I could update the screensavers but other than that I like it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Kindle DX, long battery if wifi off!
This kindle is great if you just want to read in the sun. It always connects to WIFI, but I turn off that off unless I want to go to the Kindle store to buy books. Battery last long time as long as wifi is off. I have owned 4. I have an IPad but can't see it when out on the beach!!!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Why Not?
Ok, there is nothing like having a big book in one's hands and reading it page after a page. This thing will make you feel as if you had a book (not a paperback with a magnifying glass needed) in your hands. Value, outstanding if you forgive the outrageous price. Screen is OK, may need a little more work in adjusting to one's taste. Don't let that stop you, get aboard and enjoy reading books the right way!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
