Sony site is still showing the wrong dimensions on their specs sheet, but today they published the 950 readers manual. Dimension in inches are:

7 7/8ths x 4 6/8ths x 13/32nds(.406 tenths of an inch).

The "old" 900 reader dimensions in inches with soft cover are:

8 1/8th x 5 x23/32nds(.7187 tenths of an inch)

The cover on the 900 adds 1/8th of an inch in width and 4/32nds of an inch in thickness. Many purchasers will buy the cover for the 950 and that will add very slightly to the 950 dimensions.

Probably the most significant difference will be the weight reduction:
950 without cover-9.6 ozs.
900 with cover-14.5 ozs. without-12 3/4 ozs.
