The apple iPad has the same display size as the Kindle DX which is backlit with LED (IPS). But it has a touch screen function, which is absent on the Kindle products.

The weight of the Kindle was measured at ten point two ounces while the DX was at eighteen point nine ounces. They are both point thirty six inch in thickness. Other features include a toggle, navigation buttons, keyboard and a 3.5 mm jack for a headset. The apple iPad weighs twenty four ounces or one and a half pounds. It is 0.5 inch in thickness and has a volume control, home button and a slide switch to lock the screen. The headset jack is the same size as those on the Kindle products.

The two designs by Amazon Kindle which were featured on the year's eBooks Reader Review for the gadgets are capable of subscribing to newspapers and magazines because of a basic 3G, PDF reader application and a web browser. The apple iPad proved to have much more because of the addition of Safari browser, email, iTunes, games, media player and other such applications, which are useful to users of the gadget.
