Thanks for sharing this. The K3 keyboard doesn't look too bad, and I've spent lots of time playing with a few in my local Target and Best Buy, but it just isn't speed efficient. I've always felt I could adapt to any e-reader if I have to, but it would be too hard to part with the 650. Amazon is really going to have to convince me by a large margin with their next version of the Kindle to get me to switch from Sony.

What do you think about the recessed screen on the 650?
Here's the advantage - handwriting. I realized after a few note sessions that I have to avoid dragging my palm. I think the screen placement helps prevent it a lot of the time.

Are you using a case with your 650, ebooker?
