more of the device space is devoted to the screen, while the white plastic border around the screen seems to have shrunk, both in general and compared to the proportion of screen to plastic on the Kindle 2. One nice design touch: the four-way navigation stick introduced on the Kindle 2 is rotation-sensitive, and will move as expected relative to the screen rotation.

screen rotation also works as advertised: it operates as a mild zoom on both graphics and text and offsets slightly the downside of not being able to adjust the typesize on PDF documents. Moreover, you can drag and drop your documents directly to the device using the USB cable (or use the for-a-fee email if you absolutely must.) The only downside: at least for the documents that I've used so far, I cannot adjust the type size as I can with native Kindle documents. PDF documents appear on the DX exactly as they do on a computer screen. the PDF reader works as advertised, and is extremely convenient. On the DX, you can see the whole line exactly as the poet meant it, with the cut-off in the right spot. On earlier Kindles, the smaller screen cut off lines, so that you would lose the sense of when the poet ended the line. on a side note, the larger screen also makes it possible to read poetry on the kindle, even at large type sizes. the screen is also sharper and crisper than my Kindle 2 in a side-by-side comparison: the text is darker, and the contrast is much better, making for better visibility overall. This makes the whole reading experience more book-like (and should be a boon to people who buy large-print books.) I use the larger type size on my Kindle 2 (older eyes), and at this type size I get far more text per page on the DX. I now have the DX in my hands, and can report PROS, CONS, and NEUTRALS:

The DX was not an obvious upgrade for me, but two features put me over the edge: the larger screen, and the native PDF reader. I have come to rely on my Kindle experience, and it has seriously enhanced my reading.

I have owned both Kindle 1 and Kindle 2, so I'm already committed to the basic idea: e-ink reading in a slim form factor with excellent connectivity to a large selection of books and subscriptions.
