Starting this summer -- when the DX is scheduled to be available -- the New York Times, Boston Globe, and Washington Post will sell the Kindle at a reduced price to subscribers who can't get home delivery of the printed paper. Amazon also envisions the Kindle DX as an ideal textbook reading device, and textbook publishers Cengage Learning, Pearson, and Wiley are set to offer their books through the Kindle Store, again beginning this summer.
And schools including Princeton, Case Western Reserve, and Arizona State plan to distribute Kindle DXs to students.
"The Kindle DX holds enormous potential to influence the way students learn," said Barbara R. Snyder, president of Case Western Reserve University.
The Kindle DX will cost US$489. Amazon is taking pre-orders for the device and will fill orders on a first-come, first-served basis.
