The device is 250% bigger than the recently-announced Kindle 2 gadget2（小机件）.

"You never have to pan, you never have to zoom3, you never have to scroll4. You just read," Amazon's chief executive Jeff Bezos said at the New York launch.

The device has a built-in（嵌入的，内装的） PDF document reader and the company announced deals with three leading textbook publishers to put their content on the reader.

Amazon announced deals with the New York Times, Washington Post and Boston Globe to put their editorial on the device.

A trial of the new Kindle DX service will begin in the US this summer.
