Amazon Is Huge E-Book Before
Amazon e-book reader received tremendous increase: The Kindle DX online shipper presents a model that outperforms its predecessors and competitors in every way - also with regard to price.
Bigger is better? And if so, how much? Amazon's Kindle DX is certainly much larger than the others and should provide ample material for discussion among lovers of electronic reading. For while the previous models, at least not in coat and jacket pockets could be accommodated, is the DX model for much too large: Almost on DIN A4 format, it brings the new reader.
Thus, the Kindle is advancing a new dimension not only in size but also the price reached new heights. The device will cost $ 489 on Amazon's Web site. They are $ 13 extra for each additional inch Display, summon the the DX against the Kindle 2nd During the screen a modest 6 inches (15 centimeters measure), it brings his big brother to a superb 9.7 in., that is 25 centimeters.
A color, as was expected by some media, however, it is not been given: The display is monochrome, displays images such as the Kindle 2 16 level. Therefore, the screen demonstrated strong growth of resolution. Instead of 800 x 600 pixels with its predecessor, it is now x 1200 824 pixels, representing a doubling of the smooth resolution.
Twice as much memory, just as thin as previously
Since it is not surprising that the new Amazon with the slogan "Wireless Reading just got bigger" applies. In the DX looks at first glance like a Kindle 2, the inflated one has. But this impression is deceptive. At least he has not become thicker. Despite the lessons of the new Kindle screen real estate is still only about an inch thick - or rather thin. That could bring stability problems, however, must ultimately sustain the housing now more torsional forces than its predecessor.
But not only the screen, even the memory has vigorously upgraded Amazon. A total of 3.3 gigabytes will now be available for books. According to the manufacturer enough for 3500 books. The Kindle 2 could not accommodate even half as much reading material.
New on Kindle DX is also integrated into the operating software PDF representation. So you can without complicated pre-transformation own PDF documents to display on the device - such as book digitized versions of Google's Book Search, in which the copyright has expired. During the presentation show Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, the PDF versions of something that we unfortunately could not accurately decipher - the live recording of the Kindle in hand, Bezos was thrown against the mirror wall. Bezos struggles to multiple pages, then commented dryly, according to Engadget: "You can see how well the display screen even looks like a mirror image."
Large share of digital books
Amazon has digitized 275,000 books are now on offer, announced company founder Jeff Bezos at the presentation of giant Kindle in New York. That is nearly three times as many as the launch of the Kindle in late 2007. The sales of the digital versions Bezos noted according to the Engadget reporter on the scene in a marginal note: For the track with Kindle-edition make the digital versions now 35 percent of sales from products.
So far, however, the Kindle DX is the press today as he was shown a single piece, a prototype and demonstration model. Who wants to buy the unit, it must still be patient. Preorders will be accepted even though a specific delivery date but not yet named. Sometime in the summer where it should be, but can be long.
One problem remains
On the other hand gives the waiting time buyers the opportunity to look around once before for a suitable receptacle. Maybe a backpack or notebook carrying case - or a blue perennial from the plastic bags, which sends a Swedish furniture store customers to go home.
German e-book, however, prospects are not required in our DX waiting list still adding buy backpacks and bags. So far, the sale of the Kindle, whether small or large, not provided for in this country. Furthermore, when about to change, is silent, the German branch of the online giant persistent.
