I don't want a 650. I don't want a touchscreen, and I want to switch to a 5" screen. I'm looking at the 350 as a possible replacement.

My top priorities are battery life and portability (small size); the 505 I have is larger than ideal for me. To switch to another 6" reader it'd have to offer *substantial* gains in use... folder support and more filetypes and easier switching between books, at the least. EZReader has these things; the new Sonys don't.

I read on a Clié for two years before I got a dedicated reader; if I'd had the option of one of those with a 14-hour battery, I never would've looked at e-ink. (They don't make PDAs with 14-hour batteries. And these days, I'm not sure I'd settle for that little; I like not having to worry about recharging over a holiday weekend.)
