Hi Marian,

thanks for the feedback.

So searching is also not possible, right?

But anyway, Amazon only offers the Kindle2 with International wireless coverage.
So the DX is not recommended for use in germany.

Regards,

Matthias

Matthias,
I have heard rumors (on the Kindle boards)  that at an international  
Kindle DX will be announced soon--can't remember exactly when.

Yes, I believe keyword searching is also not possible.  I KNEW there  
was a reason I had my Rev Dox on the DX but wasn't using them much.  
Or maybe that's just  because I haven't had time to use Rev at all  
lately. :-)

Marian
