    • Kindle DX Sold Out Again

    By Greg | June 29, 2009

    If you’ve just ordered a Kindle DX within the last couple of days you’ll have to wait a little while before it arrives. Amazon is saying that it will take approximately 4 to 6 weeks for the new batch of Kindle DX’s to be delivered.

    If you’re planning on getting a DX make sure that you order one now as they will be shipped out on a first come first serve basis which is what Amazon always does with the sold out Kindles.

    You can order the Kindle DX here: Kindle DX

    Cole Haan Cover For Kindle

    By Greg | June 24, 2009

    One of the top selling items that TheKindleWarehouse readers purchase for their Kindle and Kindle 2 is a cover to protect their Kindle. The top selling covers are from M-Edge but one of the more popular covers that I hear about and that readers email me about are the covers from Cole Haan which are very nice.

              

    If you’re in the market for a Kindle Cover make sure you check out the Cole Haan Kindle Covers. Most of them have either a 4 or 5 star rating from purchasers. Go here to check out the Cole Haan Covers: Cole Haan Kindle Covers

    I purchased the Amazon Kindle Leather Cover for myself for my Kindle 2 and I had an M-Edge cover for my Kindle 1 but I’m seriously thinking about getting a Cole Haan cover once I purchase my next Kindle (or maybe I’ll just get another cover for my Kindle 2).

    Anyway, check out the Cole Haan Kindle Covers and I’m sure you’ll be happy with what you see.

    Kindle DX Cover

    By Greg | June 20, 2009

    There are plenty of covers available already for the newly introduced Kindle DX and most of them are very nice. I chose to get the Amazon Kindle DX Leather Cover (same as I bought for the Kindle 2).

    I like the fact that it latches right to the Kindle DX so there’s almost zero chance that it will come apart. I also liked that way that my Kindle 2 cover felt in my hands and this cover feels basically the same way. The leather is not the greatest looking quality of leather that I’ve ever seen but I’m still very happy with the Amazon Cover.

    There are a lot of other great covers available such as the M-Edge Covers and the Neoprene Covers so even if you’re not a fan of the Amazon cover there’s plenty more styles and colors to choose from.

    For a complete list of all Kindle DX covers check this out: Kindle DX Covers

    Kindle DX Great For College Students

    By Greg | June 10, 2009

    One of the biggest expenses of going to college is the way overpriced textbooksthat you’re required to purchase. I’ve always had a problem with this, mainly because the publishers know that you must buy the book so they just charge an outrageous amount for the book. I always tried to get used books but this didn’t always work out because the publishers would come out with new editions almost every year which would make the used books obsolete. So what are we to do to save money on textbooks?

    At first glance it seems as though the Kindle DX for $489 is just another huge college expense and what’s the point of spending so much just to have an electronic reader for college.

    The reality is that the books that you can buy for your Kindle DX are at a significant savings from the prices that you would pay at the college bookstore - anywhere from 10 - 15% savings - most of the major textbook publishers are signed up with Amazon. This may not seem like a lot but with some books well over $100 you could be saving $20 to $30 per book. These savings can add up very quickly and over the course of four years of college not only pay for the Kindle DX but you can probably even come out ahead in the end.

    For those of you that think the $489 is pretty steep you can always hold out a little while and purchase a used DX. And if you’re just not sold on the whole idea of electronic readers for school you can save quite a bit just by getting your textbooks from Amazon.

    Kindle DX Review

    By Greg | May 21, 2009

    This review is based on information about the Kindle DX that is currently available. This newest Kindle will ship during the summer (no date yet update: Kindle DX started to ship on 6/10/09) and will cost $489. Pre-order the Kindle DX here - it will be available on a first come, first serve basis.

    The Kindle DX will come in very handy for those that like to read newspapers on their Kindle’s since it has a 9.7 inch screen compared to the 6 inch screen of the Kindle 2. It will also be nice for students for reading textbooks and also has built-in PDF support. If you’re looking for something more compact and are just interested in reading paperbacks electronically, the Kindle 2 is still your best bet.

    Here are the positives for the Kindle DX:

    There are quite a few pros for the Kindle DX and it looks like it is going to be a good device for those who could use some of it’s new features but there are also some cons too.
