Kindle DX Launched: 250pct Bigger Than Kindle 2 [news.bbc.co.uk]

Amazon has unveiled a new version of its Kindle e-reader, aimed at reading newspapers, magazines and documents.
The device is 250% bigger than the recently-announced Kindle 2 gadget.
"You never have to pan, you never have to zoom, you never have to scroll. You just read," Amazon's chief executive Jeff Bezos said at the New York launch.

Wow. Given the size I'd almost want to carry around one of those old fashioned things they used to make out of trees...what were they called again? ;)

Like the Kindle I'm assuming this is just another US-only product. What's the uptake on these things? I've never seen one.
