Kindle DX Now Available Internationally

I’ve written about the Kindle, how I ordered one and why I didn’t like it, but it’s worth noting that Amazon has now released an international version of the Kindle DX, the larger model with a 9.7″ screen. While I didn’t like the contrast of the device, I do feel that the screen – of the basic model I got – was a bit small. It worked okay for books, but I truly believe that the future of e-book readers is with magazines and newspapers.

Of course, I’m waiting for the Apple tablet…

    What do you think about the Nook? It looks like it will be a significant improvement over the Kindle, though I admit I have never used any of them.

    The Nook seems to have the same e-ink display, so the contrast issue will be the same.
