Kindle DXG vs Kindle 3

Hi Folks,

I've searched through the web and the forum here and I couldn't found the answer for a simple question:
What is the difference between Kindle DX gray and Kindle 3 (AKA latest generation)?
At the moment that I bought my DXG (Nov 2010) I thought there is no difference because DXG was advertised as latest as well. Afterwards looking closely I saw that:
1. DXG is using firmware 2.5.x and Kindle 3 is using firmware 3.x
2. Kindle 3 has better browser than DXG( at least displays pictures)

My main concern is - is Kindle 3 contrast better than DXG? Do they use same e-ink technology?

Is Kindle 3 pageturning faster than DXG? Last couple of days I am reading a book which is in Cyrillic txt format and is 9500 lines (or whatevere Kindle displays as page numbers) Going to previous page sometimes takes like 4-5 seconds, going forward though is not a problem.

If someone knows a review which answers to this questions please post the link.

Thank you,
Svetli
