I have both of them. I thought Sony Reader is better. Kindle DX is too large, which makes my eyes hurt. Words are too large. Sony have smaller screen so it is easier to read. Not just that, Sony reader is better for my eyes to read.

Rumor: Next-gen Kindle to feature front-lit E Ink display

Email

Amazon currently offers a range of Kindle devices. If you want one with a color screen you can get the Kindle Fire. Want a keyboard? There’s the Kindle Keyboard. Touchscreen and E Ink? There’s a Kindle Touch for that. You can even get the Kindle DX if you want a large 9.7 inch display and have enough money burning a whole in your pocket.

But what if you want a Kindle that you can read in dimly lit settings but don’t want a Kindle Fire with its less than 10 hours of battery life and distracting habit of letting you play Android games and check your email?

TechCrunch reports that Amazon is working on a new Kindle that will have a front-lit E Ink display.

It’s a soft light that won’t be as bright as a backlit LCD screen. But it will make the eReader easier to read without sitting outdoors or under a bright lamp.

Devin Coldewey says he saw an early prototype, and while he wasn’t able to get a sense of the size or shape, he says it has a blueish white glow and text appeared to be a little easier to make out than on a normal E Ink screen. There was also an adjustable brightness control.

The Amazon Kindle 4 release date may not actually be until next year but it is being talked about more and more online.

When you look at the prices of the different models, it is quite easy to understand why.

At the moment, it costs over three times as much as the cheapest 6" Kindle. But, when the Kindle DX with a color screen comes out, it might alter the equation.

What we are going to talk about in this article are the possible reasons why a larger screened Kindle 4 may be desirable. Sure, we would have a shiny new color Kindle, but what would happen to our 3rd generation handset?
