width 5.301886792"
height 7.962264151"
So rounding we've got 5.3x8". I'm not going to try it again with the high res images because I'm fairly certain we'd end up with the same numbers. I'd love to figure out the depth, but I can not for the life of me find the diameter of a pencil on Google. 
Oh wow, just noticed this is my first post since joining in June! |
I happen to have an identical pencil on my desk here. It's almost 8mm wide, when viewed the same way as shown on the image (with three faces showing). 7mm if you view it with only two faces showing. That makes the new kindle 9.88 mm wide, or about .4 of an inch.
