Ahmed,
Keep in mind the kindle ONLY uses battery power when you have its wireless
turned on (only when you're downloading books) or when you turn pages.
Typical battery time is about 2 weeks for average use I'd say. The DX is
not really portable for daily travel but so much better than lugging even
one cisco book around and the fact that you can have so many technical books
and articles at your disposal makes it a win for me :D
