- grogenaut 6y agoSony has the same scale. It's the scale of sales not manuf that dictates the price. Not sure if you remember the Kindle DX. It did not sell well but boy did I covet one.
- WalterBright 6y agoI bought a DX. It's still a wonderful machine. I worry when the battery fails and it'll be gone for good.
- npongratz 6y agoI recently replaced the battery in my Kindle Keyboard (I love physical buttons). It was easier to replace than I expected, and after half a year of daily use, haven't noticed any issues with the battery. There are probably at least a few good places to buy replacement batteries; I got mine from batteryship dot com. I have zero association with them except that I bought this one battery, and will probably buy a phone battery from them in the future.
