In the world of e-book readers, you have a lot of choices to select from but what name has stood out from the crowd since its inception and that is the Amazon Kindle.
Of course there is always plenty of room for improvement as Amazon has shown with their recently release of their Amazon Kindle DX.
Let us compare for a moment the Kindle DX vs.
Kindle 2.
0 models.
This version of the reader features a much larger 9.
7 inch display using the popular e-ink design.
It is also capable of storing up to 3,500 different books and includes the much anticipated native PDF support.
The display is auto-orientating so it will adjust as you move it around.
It still hold the popular 3G wireless technology which allows you free access to download the books you are wanting.
On the other hand though, the standard model only has a 6 inch display which is auto-orienting.
It can only hold up to 1,500 books and does not support PDF natively as it requires them to be converted online before downloading them to the device.
One of the main reasons why the standard Kindle has not been as popular was due to its lacking ability to support the PDF files which can be found all over the internet.
With the release of the DX though, this issue can be considered a thing of the past.
It is important to remember though that the display is known as e-ink.
What this is, is it is a specially designed display that is capable of 16 shades of grey and give the appearance is if you were actually looking at paper.
It reflects light the same manner as book paper and its contrast is also very similar which means there is no need for a back light.
No backlight also means that the batteries will last a longer time in comparison to other readers which are currently available.
