My original eReader was the Sony 505. Got the 600 because I really liked all of the touch screen stuff... but after awhile I found it irritating to read on under most lighting conditions. On a lark I got the 300 to play with, intending to return it, but found myself using it exclusively.

Comparing, side by side, a six inch to a five inch screen the 6 inch seems better, but when you do a lot of reading I really prefer the 5 inch form factor. It's so much lighter and easier to handle, especially one-handed.

Now the 350 combines the best of both worlds, and is even smaller and lighter! In addition you can create categories right on the reader. So you can for instance create a "Reading" list for books that you are currently reading and move it to a "Finished" list when done.

Again it feels incredibly nice and light in your hand. It takes just a 1/4 inch swipe to turn a page using almost no pressure. Can't wait to get mine...
