Amazon Kindle DX Global is Available in Canada!

Amazon now ships the Kindle DX to Canada.

Imade of Kindle DX Global Electronic ReaderA few weeks before Chistmas, Canadians were finally given a chance to purchase the popular electronic reader, the Kindle Global Reader. Now, Amazon has added their premium electronic reader, the Kindle DX.  Canadians embraced the Kindle Global and sales were reported to be strong over the holidays. 

Amazon does however have some stiff competiton in Canada. Sony offers their line of eReaders (the Sony Touch and Sony Pocket) at selected brick and mortar shops such as Best Buy and Future Shop. Then, after Christmas, Sony began to offer its newest electronic reader,  the Sony Daily Edition which offers a large touch screen. Amazon is clearly addressing that challenge. Here are a few of the features you'll find on the Kindle DX...

Electronic Reader Thanksgiving

Giving Thanks for Electronic Book Readers and e-Books

It has been close to 2 years now for Electronic Reader Review and we have a lot to be thankful for...

  • We thank insightful and progressive companies such as Amazon and Sony for jumping in and really leading the way in this new market. The Amazon Kindle and the Sony Reader are hands down at the top of the game and for good reason...they're great products!

  • We'd like to thank Google for pushing the digital publishing boundaries by making over 300,000 classic and out of print books available to the masses...for free!

  • We thank Amazon, Blurb and Lulu for helping regular people write, publish and distribute their own books.
  • We'd like to thank the Search Engines: Google, Bing, Yahoo, MSN and the many others for indexing Electronic-Reader.com and sending your eyes our way.

  • Finally, we'd like to thank you, the reader. It seems that one of the biggest benefits gained from electronic readers and digital books is that it is once again cool to read!

Thanks again everyone. We hope you have a fun and safe thanksgiving!
