It was an easy choice for me. I didn't want to have to clean my grubby paw prints off the white one all the time!

The eink pearl display that is used in the DXG is a large improvement in both contrast and speed, as I stated above.

E Ink Pearl, announced on July 31, 2010, is the second generation of E Ink Vizplex displays, a higher contrast screen built with E Ink Pearl Imaging Film.[8] The updated Amazon Kindle DX [Graphite] was the first device announced to use the screen...

I have two DX and two DXG units. There is a very visible difference in display quality (and in speed) in the newer Graphite models.
If your "personal preference" is for a display that is slower and lower contrast, so be it...
But for me, the combination of higher perceived contrast combined with higher real contrast plus higher update speed makes the DXG an obvious choice.
