Thanks to Plastic Logic, they expects to begin making digital newspaper readers by the end of this year. With their innovation of this Kindle DX eco friendly newpaper it will safe a lot of paper and its mean our environment will less pollution with waste paper. Can you imagine if every family buy a newspaper per days how many the paper will being used and how much tree will be a victim? I think we must take apart in this eco friendly newspaper in other word we must support them.

The Kindle DX begin with his brother’s Kindle, It was introduced in November 2007, at a price of $399, later lowered to $359. A second version, with more memory and longer battery life, was introduced in February 2009 at the same price.The Kindle uses a display technology called electronic ink, that is meant to mimic the experience of reading black letters on white paper. It is easier to read in bright lights and it uses less electricity than the sort of displays used on laptop computers and cellphones.

Ok its flash back about the Kindle, and now we talk about the Kindle DX. If you love to read, the Kindle DX is the right device for you. The large Screen display  its mean you can read book, newspaper, magazine and even blog very comfortably. With auto-rotating screen you can changing your screen display from portrait to landscape so you can view full-width maps, graphs, tables, and Web pages.

Kindle DX can read to you. With its Text-to-Speech feature, Kindle DX can read books, blogs, magazines, and newspapers out loud to you, unless the book’s rights holder made the feature unavailable. You can switch back and forth between reading and listening, and your spot is automatically saved. Pages automatically turn while the content is being read, so you can listen hands-free.
