Kindle DX Gets Temporary Price Cut ? But How Long Can This Jumbo E-Reader Last?

Amazon's extra-large Kindle DX is available this weekend (which is to say for the next few hours) for the low, low price of $259, down from its normal $379. It's telling that even the lowered price still seems ridiculously high, considering that smaller but more advanced models are selling for under $100. How long can this outlier live in a world dominated by cheap, pocketable, touchscreen e-readers? In its current form, the fact is it's likely on its way out. The Kindle Keyboard and indeed the graphite look in general are on their way out, to be replaced by the lighter, thinner, more touchable new generation. But there's a problem: the DX is one of the very few e-readers that doesn't use the same 6" E-Ink screen as everyone else. Amazon probably knows there's demand there, but perhaps the time is not yet right to strike.
