Well I called a somewhat local Best Buy, about 28 miles away, and they told me they had one PRS-350 in stock and then told me they'd hold it for me. I went up there and they handed me a PRS-300 with no sight of 350 anywhere. The 350 feature set would be fine for me, I don't have a ton of books and the capacity now would be more than sufficient for me, most likely. Also audio books I don't bother with now, though I may try some at some point, my phone could probably handle it though. I think the 350 could probably fit in my pocket as well, which could be nice. The only thing, after seeing a Kindle 3, Nook and the Sony's in close proximity is the 5" does look kind of small. Since all the main players are 6" I am conerned that the formatting could be a nuisance on the 5" occasionally, especially if there are any illustrations in a book I happen to be reading, something like Under the Dome's map or Lord of the Rings map, which seemed even a bit of a stretch on the Nook screen when I saw it. With zoom it may be ok. Any feedback from heavy users of the 5" eReaders on this?
