Amazon Kindle DX review {Engadget}
Jun 19th 2009 8:03PM Yep! I've got some datasheets for electronic parts that I'm using, and they come out great. The only way to zoom is to rotate the screen (making it expand to the width), but I usually don't need that - can read the whole page just fine.
Amazon Kindle DX to start shipping on June 10th {Engadget}
Jun 1st 2009 1:45PM Dave - the DX has an accelerometer. If you want the page flip buttons on the left side, then hold the unit upside down & it'll display the text correctly. Yeah, it's a bit of a kludge because the keyboard is then upside down, but not as bad a missing the left-side buttons altogether.

Sharp adds cyan and yellow to its RGB displays, laughs scornfully at magenta {Engadget}
May 29th 2009 11:38AM RGB vs. CMYK isn't just an arbitrary choice of "print media" vs. "computers/tv"; the difference is additive color vs. subtractive color. If the subpixels are adjacent (like on a monitor), then it's additive; if they are stacked on top of each other (like how they print the sunday comics), then it's subtractive. It depends on the display technology.
