IT Reviews have published their review of the Amazon Kindle DX Global Wireless Edition digital device. 'The Kindle DX Global Wireless Edition plays music, so you can listen to tunes while you read, and it has a 3.5mm headset slot. Do so, though, and you will considerably shorten the battery life. Amazon rates it as good for one week's reading use with wireless turned on, two weeks with it turned off. We found this to be pretty close to the mark. The large screen and keyboard mean this is a fairly hefty device to carry around - it weighs 530g, and it is far too big for a pocket. We also found it a little unwieldy to hold; we definitely prefer smaller format ereaders. But on the plus side, the reading controls are large and easy to use, and we've already noted the benefits of the sizeable screen.'
