There are new developments recently announced by Amazon that have caused me to perk up.
First of all, the standard Kindle 2 now includes a native PDF reader on its own. Plus they've lowered the price to $189! What a deal:

Kindle Wireless Reading Device, Free 3G, 6" Display, White, 3G Works Globally - Latest Generation
They also have a new version of the DX out. And that price has been reduced as well! ($379)

Kindle DX Wireless Reading Device, Free 3G, 9.7" Display, White, 3G Works Globally – 2nd Generation
So, it seems like it's getting harder to choose between the two. The main (only?) advantage of the DX over the standard one now is a bigger screen, and more memory. The standard Kindle holds 1500 books. The DX holds 3500.
The other thing I'm really wanting to do is to access my Logos 4 library from it. I've heard that you can get to it through http://library.logos.com
I've got enough money saved to get the standard Kindle today. So, should I take the plunge, or hold out for the DX?
Leave a comment with your opinion. Also...click through the links above to check out the specs at Amazon's site. If you buy through my link I'll get a small commission.
Thanks!
