Wow – Amazon have updated the Kindle DX product page to indicate that the ship date is June 10th, 2009 -
This is a lot sooner than the July 6th kindle dx ship date that people had reported seeing in their Kindle for iPhone app. I ought to be able to get mine through to Canada a week or so after it arrives at my friend’s place and will add on a comprehensive kindle dx review and some videos and some comparison videos with the kindle 2.
June 10th is also the day of the Apple conference – makes you wonder if Amazon set the release date on purpose
It would make sense that Amazon are anticipating a big announcement from Apple and their recent moves like the Kindle for iphone upgrade, announcing DX, etc. are to counter that. Setting a date oj June 10th for the release of the dx certianly seems to indicate it.
Update: Actually the later shipping date and later delivery date was because of super saver shipping. Choosing Next Day Shipping changed things to - Delivery estimate: June 11, 2009.
. Perhaps its a later dx delivery date if you ordered later in May.
Checked my order and for some reason the dx shipping date is indicated as June 15th (even though I ordered during the conference itself on May 6th) -
