I suspect the large screen Kindle DX, Free 3G, 9.7" E Ink Display may be on it's way out as a product, but for those holding out for one (and it's large screen is quite nice for many books, although some may find it a bit heavy to hold while reading, without a stand, it's no worse than an iPad or pad of paper), this is the time to nab one, at a huge savings (it's now less than many of the earlier 6" models sold for). It includes 3G cellular service at no charge, including web browsing (which has been limited to WiFi mode with the Kindle Touch and that trend will no doubt continue). The $259 price will continue thru Nov 28 or while supplies last (all inventory or marked stock?); this is less than several third party sellers and barely $13 more than the cost of a refurbished device.Book Description
