Electronic Book Readers are expected to rise in popularity and may even threaten the future of printed books.
Well, you can bet on it according to the technophiles who predict a massive growth for Electronic book readers.
Electronic book readers
(also known as eReaders or eBook readers) are all over the media lately, you can’t get away from the fact that they are some of the hottest new gadgets around. But just what are they and what can they do?
First, what are they?
Well, the simplest definition is that
electronic book readers provide a method by which you can read traditional books in digital format (also known as eBooks, ereader, e-reader, nook,
kindle
, kobo,
ipad
, bebook, book reader, electronic, ebook device, hanlin, iliad, irex, kendall, wireless reader). These are generally handheld, portable devices allowing you to store multiple eBooks in one place. Of course, eBooks themselves are designed to replicate the printed word, whether that be a book or magazine, but are delivered electronically.
Amazon
Kindle DX
is proving a popular alternative to Amazon's original kindle, which is still available with global wireless access. Amazon decided to release a model that would satisfy customers wanting a larger screen and are willing to pay a little extra. There are few added features, but is the kindle DX worth the extra expense?
You are the best judge after giving due consideration to the facts.
Features of the Amazon Kindle DX
* 9.7 inch e-Ink display,
* 10.4 x 7.2 x 0.4 inches in size,
* Built in keyboard and speakers,
* 1.1 lbs,
* Built in PDF reader,
* 3.3GB memory,
* Supports DOC, PDF, RTF, TXT, HTML, PRC, BMO, GIF, PNG, JPEG and MP3,
* 3G wireless connectivity to the Kindle store.
The major benefit of choosing the DX model over the traditional
Kindle
is that the screen is 2.5 times the size, making it far easier to read books and even broadsheet newspapers than ever before. This is especially useful for those who tend to read large print books. The larger screen means that books, documents and websites can be read in a way that they were intended, rather than breaking off in the
middle of sentences due to size restrictions.
