Time for Amazon to Finally Release Another Large Kindle
It was so long ago now most people have probably forgotten about it, but Amazon used to sell a large Kindle with a 9.7-inch E Ink screen called the Kindle DX. They first started selling it in 2009 and then they released an upgraded version in 2010. They continued to sell the Kindle DX for […]

For a device that has been seemingly discontinued (twice), that long of a shipping delay makes no sense […]
Amazon Still Selling Kindle DX International Version for $199
Okay, so this is kind of odd. Amazon recently stopped selling the Kindle DX (for the second time) and since then the device has only been available used, and at majorly inflated prices. But if you know just where to look you can still find the Kindle DX for sale new on Amazon for the […]
