That's a screenshot at the left from my DX Graphite.
Here's an image showing the relative sizes of the DXG and Kindle 3.
This is on sale today only "(or until they're all gone)" ...
I don't know what this means for Amazon's larger-model, whether they're replacing it or not. Since they're de-emphasizing 3G these days, as they pay 3G phone data charges, maybe they're planning a WiFi only DXG but I have absolutely no real idea. Am just speculating. As I've said, I personally prefer 3G because I can use that anywhere to access the Net for lookups.
It's a beautiful piece though, and I personally use it for PDFs hard to read on my smaller Kindle. Here's a picture of my previous DX when I took it on a 3 week trip to Egypt & Petra because I needed to look at detailed diagrams of places we were visiting and because it's easier to read. This shows it on my airplane's breakfast tray.
This is a page of thumbnails of the previous DX to see the less contrasty screen which still shows how pages look on a Kindle of that size i portrait and landscape mode.
Below I've linked some initial blog articles on the Kindle DX Graphite when it was released. It has the Pearl screen so is similar to the Kindle 3 but the text stands out even more so though it's hard to show this in photos for some reason.
. Graphite DX: Day 1 reports
. Reactions to DXG by tough
Mobileread Forum folks
. A guided tour - of the older DX w/less contrast but a good slideshow of features.
. DX or Kindle 2? - I pointed out the pros and cons of the DX vs the 6" Kindle and these still apply.
Hope that helps somewhat.
