Kindle Six Inch or Nine Point Seven Inch Screen?

Ok so you have decided to grab yourself one of the latest wireless electronic book readers from Amazon, strangely named a Kindle. Great but you have a problem and in this case size does matter.

You see the Kindle range of devices come in essentially two sizes. Apart from some wireless and 3G features, the real issue at stake is the size of the screen or the actual device itself. One size is lightweight, compact and easy to hold in one hand, like you would a paper back and the other is larger and needs two hands to hold and read, like you would if reading a newspaper or tabloid.

The smaller version has a well supplied, easy to read screen of six inches, this is the entry-level model that retails for about $139. The larger model, called the Kindle DX has more screen real estate and comes in at 9.7 inches, making it about 50% bigger.

The bigger device is good for reading newspapers, journals, magazines and pdf documents but does require more effort owing to the size.

The smaller device is best if you are a book lover and happy to read novels or paperback type publications whilst commuting to the daily grind.

Both models or should I say the three models all come with an exceptionally easy screen to read text, as the smart people at Amazon have created what they call E ink. The page is high in contrast but low in brightness and closely resembles a print page. The screen is no reflective and stands up to the normally challenging environment of the great out doors. Even in direct, brilliant sunlight the screen of the Kindle is very easy to read.

If you are anything like me, you may want to get both and confine each one to the task for which it is best suited. Depending on your budget, this may not be possible, so the best advice would be to pick the one that best suits your most common needs.
