Kindle DX To Ship June 10th
We’ve known for a while that the new Kindle DX was set to ship this Summer, and now we have an actual date. The word has gone out that the DX will start shipping on June 10th. If you haven’t pre-ordered one yet, you might want to do so. The new Kindle’s will be dolled out on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Amazon is expecting the Kindle DX to be a big seller among university students and teachers. If you’ve been on the fence about buying one out of the worry that a color-Kindle will soon render the DX obsolete, you can rest easy. Amazon is still ”years away” from releasing a color Kindle. The technology just isn’t ready yet.

Carry Your Library in a Profile As Thin As a Magazine

Holds Up To 3,500 Books

The ultimate travel companion, Kindle DX is as thin as a magazine and holds up to 3,500 books, newspapers, magazines, and documents. No longer pick and choose which books fit in your carry-on. Now you can always have your personal and professional libraries with you.

Automatic Library Backup: Download Your Books Anytime for Free

A copy of every book you purchased from the Kindle Store is backed up online at Amazon.com in case you ever need to download it again. You can wirelessly re-download books for free anytime. This allows you to make room for new titles on your Kindle DX, knowing that Amazon is storing your personal library of Kindle books. We even back up your last page read and annotations, so you’ll never lose those, either. Think of it as a bookshelf in your attic–even though you don’t see it, you know your books are there.

Included In the Box

Kindle DX electronic reader, Kindle DX power adapter, and USB 2.0 cable (for connection to the Kindle DX power adapter or optionally to connect to a PC or Macintosh computer).
