Here's the 350. Man I hope the 650 is as excellent as it's looking.

I'm looking at the 950 maybe. If it's also using the Pearl screen and no touch layer, then it would be a really nice size.

I'm after the 650 myself. I mostly read during night shifts which consists of paperwork (usually done by midnight), training, and rounds. Something of the in-between size with the better screen... My credit card is already glaring at me. I just hope the machines are as good as the screen shots are suggesting. The Kindle screens look a little better, but not so much more for me to jump ship from Sony.

Waterstones UK have the 350 & 650 listed for pre order at £159.99 ($245.42) and £199.99 ($306.78) respectively. Some mark-up!!!!
Neither Play or W H Smith are listing them yet, still showing old models. Last edited by columbus; 09-01-2010 at 09:47 AM. |

So, the best news, I think, is that touchscreen is not wacom, yet it doesn't affect screen quality and can be used with fingers.
But I'll miss the next/prev page buttons. |

Maybe Columbus means in respect of the older models: 300 is/was £99, 350 then is an increase of 60% if this price is correct.

Down at the bottom of the page, it sez eInk Pearl with anti-glare touch. Clears up some questions.
Now. About that price... |

I'm sure I'll have a good time in Canada (Vancouver to be precise). My younger brother lives there and we're going over for his wedding. |
