I got the DX because I read a lot of PDFs and Word documents that don't fit on a small screen. It ended up being my favorite ereader ever. The big screen lets you pick a big font, which makes for a super-easy reading experience. The battery is a problem, though, yeah.


Same thing. I have the DX and love it. I can't complain about the battery, it lasts at least 3 weeks of 1 to 2 hours of reading every single night with the 3G off.

The only thing that pisses me off is that I could not find a decent reading light to accompany it until today.

I ended up using my IPhone a reading light which is not ideal.


I bought DX years ago and it is still among the most used devices, second only to iPhone. I wish Amazon would make it bigger, but now they don't even produce it any more. Let's hope someone would come in and fill the void.


It's expensive, but Sony's digital paper product looks pretty sweet: https://pro.sony.com/bbsc/ssr/show-digitalpaper/resource.sol...


The Onyx e-readers are pretty damn good for PDFs.
