Now, I'm kind of falling in love with the 350. It's more compact, and does almost the same thing as the 650. I've never once used the audio feature on any of my eReaders. The optional extra storage may be a big factor, as my favorite feature of the 700 was dropping a memory card of my work in progress and line editing it. I think I'll head back to Sony tomorrow and play with them both again.
So, the question for all you early adopters:
Which do you want/have, and why?

I've mentioned this in another thread:
My original eReader was the Sony 505. Got the 600 because I really liked all of the touch screen stuff... but found it irritating to read on, under most lighting conditions. On a lark I got the 300 to play around with for a while, intending to return it. I 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, especially for text only books. And this is doubly so for the 350 since it is lighter and smaller still and it feels so good in your hand. Which you have to admit, but is often overlooked, is a large part of the reading experience. In addition, when your reading, you're not comparing the 5 inch screen with anything else. So from now on, this is my format of choice.
The only time I would consider getting a larger Reader is when they get good color e-ink for reading Art and Technical books. But I will still use the 5 inch for novels, biographies, text mostly books.
