Q. i want to buy the kindle, or kindle dx. is it available in india? and plus reading besides from books bought in amazon, can it read ebooks downloaded from internet for free?
A. Unfortunately, Kindle or Kindle DX are not available outside the U.S. See the question "Is Kindle DX available to customers outside the United States?" here:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fhelp%2Fcustomer%2Fdisplay.html%3Fie%3DUTF8%26nodeId%3D200342760&tag=querystr-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957
So you see, even if you are able to get the Kindle device, it will still be a headache to buy books for the Kindle, because Amazon is the only source to buy books for the Kindle and they only allow order of Kindle books inside the U.S.
Indeed, the best feature to have free wireless internet access vanishes if you are not in the U.S. I'll recommend you to go for the Sony Reader instead:

Most ebooks are in PDF format, and sony reader can handle PDF natively. You can go to here to download free PDF. It provides over 20,000 free books in PDF format:

Does anyone have a Review of the Kindle DX?
Q. Not really sure if I want to buy it yet, has anyone tried it out/have a review?
A. I owned the Kindle 2 and Kindle DX has all the benefits of the Kindle 2. I do think the Kindle DX is even better than the Kindle 2, so let me give you some of my opinions. I've to say I love my Kindle 2! I think I've read over 20 books with my Kindle, no glitches so far!
I love my Kindle because it has helped me improve a lot on my efficiency and utilize my time. Before I owned the Kindle, waiting time like when I'm waiting for friends or waiting for shuttle bus or some thing like that is simply wasted. Now I just need to bring the Kindle along with me. Another thing I like the most is the text-to-speech function, which means I can "read" books without even holding or looking at the Kindle. Now I like to use this function when I've myself busy on some boring things, say when I'm on the step machine or doing some housework...
I like reading and at the beginning I missed a bit on the feeling of reading books. But now I love to hold the Kindle, the e-ink seems to work very well, it is really like reading books... Now I often read with the Kindle for several hours but I don't feel tired...
For books, books for the Kindle are cheaper than that of actual books. Amazon also provides quite a lot of free or very cheap books:

I'll recommend you to read this review on Kindle DX too:

Hope this helps your decision.
can the case for kindle dx fit kindle 3?
Q.
A. The kindle dx is 3" wider, so you could put a kindle 3 in a dx case but it wouldn't be snug and would jump around probably.
If you decide to get a case made for the kindle 3, you can browse many cases and get a good deal here:
