Just went to the Sony store and took my prs-500 to compare. The new screen is a little bit better , but as you can tell by Kaitou Ace’s photos, it’s not a huge difference. If I felt I wouldn’t have to always have a booklight with me I would have bought the new one on the spot. I like the new style and the cover looks a lot nicer, but I may wait until one comes out with a markedly better screen, a smaller form factor with the same size screen, a search function, or mac compatibility. For me it's at least worth waiting to see what the Amazon Kindle looks like first.
It is nice to see Sony continue to develop the Reader, though.
