Here is some info provided by amazon about this global Kindle DX

The price is still $489, it is the same price as the US-only DX model that came out last June and is in stock and shipping right now. Keep in mind the the Kindle global DX is a delicate and expensive gadget, it does not come with a cover so I strongly suggest you get one when placing your order.

The new Global-international Kindle Dx is out now making any refurbished models obsolete. This means that there will no longer be any refurbished kindle DX models out until the new model starts shipping out and getting refurbished, which could take months.

Take the Kindle 2 model for example. As soon as the new Kindle 2 global-international came out all the refurbished Kindle 2 items were no longer available. The Kindle 2 global was launched on October 7th,  and 5 months later there is still no refurbished model being sold.

So, if you are trying to buy a refurbished Kindle you can either wait for months and hope that some day they are available (Amazon has not said when or if they will be in stock again), or you might as well just buy a new one.

Refurbished Kindle Dx readers are available now

Good news for everyone looking for a Refurbished Kindle Dx. Amazon is offering them for the amazing price of $399.99, that is a saving of  $90. The refurbished kindle Dx models are fullfilled by Amazon, which means that Amazon handles all customer service and product returns for “Fulfilled by Amazon” items, including refurbs.

These Refurbished Kindle Dx models are flying off the site, so don’t think about it, go get yours before they are out of stock again.

Doesn’t happen very often, but sometimes your Kindle DX might just “freeze”, where the screen seems to be stuck and the buttons won’t respond. You need to reset it but it just doesn’t seem to do anything.

What to do?

Easy:  Slide the power switch over and hold it for thirty seconds until it starts to reboot. 30 seconds seems like a long time, but believe me, if you don’t hold the power swith long enough your Kindle DX will simply not reboot.

The Kindle DX is now in stock again! Buy yours now

Kindle DX available again

Just checked the Amazon website for the Kindle DX and this is what is says:

KINDLE DX In Stock.

Just a few hours ago it still had the  ”expected to ship in 2 to 3 weeks” message so it seems the new stock of Kindle DXs has arrived! You can choose between free shipping, which takes a few days, or if you are in a hurry you can use the One-Day Shipping at checkout and have your KindleDX in your hands by tomorrow.

- size of device/screen
- native PDF support vs. PDF’s needing to be converted
- rotating screen vs. standard portrait orientation

Obviously, the DX is considerably larger than the K2. Prehaps you would prefer to view/read books with a much larger screen that is virtually similar in size to a hard cover book. If so, than the DX would be for you. Text books, manuals, PDF’s and other types of similar reading material are what the DX, with its vast screen size, was truly designed for, but it can certainly be used for simple book reading. Otherwise, the K2′s screen is “approximately” the size of a mass paperback novel, and is a size that I am personally comfortable with. In addition to its larger size, the DX is a good bit heavier than the K2 as well, which may be an issue for you, as some have commented about the “awkwardness” of holding the DX when reading due to its weight, as well as its thin design, which makes it like holding a really heavy magazine.

The DX offers native PDF support, meaning you can load PDF docs straight onto the DX for viewing. With the K2, you have to have the PDF docs converted to a compatible format for viewing on the K2. It’s a simple process, but one that you might find tedious if your big on wanting to read/view PDF’s on your Kindle.

And finally, the DX has a rotating screen – for both portrait viewing and landscape viewing – better to view images/graphs/charts with, as well as better to view PDF’s, and even read books with if you prefer.

OCTO Faux Leather Slip Cover for Amazon Kindle DX It is made from dark brown faux leather with soft grey microfibre internal lining. This case isn’t as advance as the book cover looking ones. It doesn’t attach to the kindle in anyways, its simply something to slide it into for basic protection. If thats what you want, then this is perfect. If you have a DX, don’t want animal skin, and like the slipcase format, this is a good economical choice.

Keep your Kindle and Kindle Dx dry

Nothing is as relaxing as a nice bubble bath in the tub while reading a great book. But the Kindle, as any electronic device, will get ruined if you accidentally drop it in the water. The perfect (and cheap!) solution for this is the Kwik Tek Dry Pak Multi-Purpose Case. It is a clear 9-Inch x 12-Inch plastic bag that you can seal and have no more worries about water touching your Kindle. It is big enough to hold either the Kindle 2 or even the Kindle Dx. The Kindle 1 will fit also, although it will be a pretty tight fit.  It’s a simple product, easy to use, and it does exactly what it’s supposed to do: keep valuables dry with nary a leak. Your Kindle won’t ever get wet.

It is also great for taking your Kindle outdoors, on a boat, or to the beach since it will keep the sand out. And don’t worry, there is no glare caused by the bag so you can read with no problems.

So… how do you do it?

The Kindle DX Ereader is being shipped now

Several members of Kindle forums on the net are starting to post that they have received notes from Amazon telling them that their Kindle DX ereader has been shipped.

Member “lmk2045″  for example has posted this

I received my shipping confirmation this afternoon from Amazon. It is shipping from their Elizabethtown, KY warehouse and should arrive tomorrow via FedEx.

So, it seems the new batch of Kindle DX’s has arrived and is starting to roll out.  Might be the perfect time to order your Kindle Dx.  Although Amazon’s site still shows a waiting period of 1 to 2 weeks, many forum posters are saying that the waiting period was actually much lower
