I looked at all three, and this is my take on the screens:
The Sony 505 and the PocketBook 360 look almost the same, except there's a hint of "grain" on the Sony. I wouldn't say the Sony is clearer than the PocketBook 360. They really look almost the same to me.
The Astak compared to the PocketBook 360 (which, for me, is an easier assesment to make in that the screens are the same size) appears to be just a tad darker than the PocketBook. This is really not that noticeable, and doesn't detract (for me) at all from the Astak Pocket Pro.
The Astak is a fine Reader, but it has an outdated look to me. I like the feel of the PocketBook 360 much better, regardless of the screen on both units. For me, the PocketBook 360 seems more "elegant" in the way things are implemented. I much prefer the form factor of the PocketBook 360. The one thing I don't like are those butterfly wing controls. But hey! That's just me!
Hope this helps.
