| Bottom line | The third-generation
Kindle's winning combination of noteworthy upgrades--an improved screen, better battery life, lighter weight, and lower price--vaults it to the top of the e-book reader category. | Though it has a hard time competing with Apple's
iPad in terms of functionality, the less-expensive 2010 Kindle DX will appeal to those looking for a large, dedicated e-reader with an e-ink display. | Although it has all the positive attributes typically associated with a Kindle device, the arrival of Apple's
iPad seriously affects the Kindle DX's viability unless Amazon lowers its price by at least $100. | The pricey
Kindle DX offers improvements over the Kindle 2, but its larger chassis has its pluses and minuses. |
