I thought there were some changes made to the DX. From the MR wiki:

Quote:
The Kindle DX Graphite is the 3rd generation Kindle DX, but the differences are relatively minor. The 1st generation was US-only with EVDO wireless, the 2nd generation was international with AT&T 3G. The 1st and 2nd generation were white with a E Ink Vizplex screen. The 3rd generation is graphite with a E Ink Pearl screen. The Pearl screen has 50% more contrast.
