I agree with you. I went to Best Buy hoping to do a side-by-side comparison, and while they had the 350 in stock, the demo models were the older ones. This does a great disservice to Sony: a lot of people won't even know that there ARE newer models. I don't know if Sony or Best Buy is responsible for demo units.
FWIW, I have heard that the demo Nooks are also older models. Although they have not made a new version, they have quietly improved the screen, the page turns, and the buttons and I don't think the demos reflect that. And the Kindle is "crippled" in demo mode, you can't actually play with it.
Let's face it, ereaders are a much smaller market than televisions or video game consoles or something like that.
