The 350 has several other advantages over the 300. Although the screen is the same size, the 350 is significantly smaller and lighter overall. Additionally, the touch screen does allow for functionality that was previously impossible. In particular, it makes it much more practical to look up words in the dictionary. Some will use/benefit form this more than others. Personally, I enjoy it immensely, being somewhat of a word freak. These are the full unabridged Oxford dictionaries, by the way, complete with detailed etymologies.
The added foreign language dictionaries are another new function in the 350. Even if you do not enjoy reading in other languages, many English books include foreign words/terms that may not be in the regular English dictionary. Obviously, this depends on what you read. The 350 also allows you to create collections directly on the device, instead of having to do this on your computer using Caliber or Sony's software. You can also easily highlight, underline, and make notes in your books. All of these features are helpful to everyone, but many appreciate them and will use them heavily.
