In the immortal words of Rihanna, “where have you been?”
After a long hiatus from Amazon, the giant Kindle DX has made a triumphant return to the online store, According To The Verge. Literally nothing about the product Appears to have changed-features and price all Appear to be the same.
The Kindle DX has been on life support since being Introduced back in mid-2009th It’s a giant 10-inch screen e-reader Meant for text books and news papers and priced at a whopping $ 489. Seven months later, the iPad was Introduced for $ 10 more, and the world more or less forgot about the unwieldy single-tasking device.
After minor upgrades and price drops, the Kindle DX was seemingly retired from Amazon’s store back in October When it was priced at $ 299. Now it has made an unceremonious return, with no apparent differences. The Kindle DX is now almost an artifact of the olden days of the Kindle line-the QWERTY keyboard is intact, as is the free 3G network access, and there is nary a “Special Offer” to be found crowding up the sleep screen.
Amazon fired Immediately respond to requests for comment on where the Kindle DX has been or why it’s suddenly shown up in our lives again wanting to take walks and make plans like nothing ever happened. Maybe it has not changed. But we have.
