Strangely Waterstones in Manchester (UK) only had the 650 on display along with a garish (pink) 300, and an Elonex. I'm not sure why no 350s were around, maybe they were trying to shift old stock.

It was OK, screen about as good as my 505, but with a slightly darker background grey. I sort of liked the touchscreen, but couldn't really see the point - I kept using the buttons anyway. I'm happy with the 505, but when all good thigns come to an end the 650 wouldn't be a bad replacement. Hopefully they'll be in the 1000 models by then.
