Is the weight difference significant between the DX, or Graphite, and the Latest Gen version? I'm looking for something light, as well as no back lit screen. I notice that Amazon's photos always show the DX as being held with two hands, verses the Latest Gen, which is held with one hand.
Kindle DX Graphite has more screen slightly whiter, and 50% higher contrast or 10:1 contrast ratio. That means the Kindle DX Graphite has sharper text and images. Overall, it has better readability. But it takes a half hour more for charge time.
Also, text botton for Next and Prev are cconverted to > and < .
I think there no other difference between white and black.

I hope they release a new white edition or gray, for my view they are better than black.
