If you have both i would say it depends on your reading behaviour. If you are a "mobile reader" you'll love your 6" more if you are the classic "chair at home" reader you will love the advantages of a much bigger screen.

Alsways keep in mind that the DX is heavier then the 6" kindle, its not a big issues but can got on your nerves after some hours (at least it does for me).

But in the end i really believe if you have "just" a 6" kindle you won't "miss" the DXG. At least that is what my experience is. As long as i have the bigger screen it is cool but if i would have to choose a 6" would be enough.

/EDIT To your question, it would never come to my mind to carry my DX around when i can grab my K2. But on the other hand if i would just call a DX my own it won't be to bulky or heavy to carry around.
