Good question, actually I was on the fence before I visited the SonyStyle store. It could have been either a 350, 650 or 950 that day.
For me, higher DPI is the major selling point. I did the side-by-side screen comparison of the 350, 600, 650 and the 950. The 350 is noticeably sharper as people had commented on the forum. For example, the pages numbers at the bottom of the screen (10 of 324), on the 650, when looking closely, the aliasing on the curves of the number "3" is still quite visible; where as they look smooth on the 350.
Both the 650 and the 350 has good solid construction, and much easier to disassemble(2 screws). The weight difference is significant. In the past, every time leaving the house, it was a decision of whether to bring the 505. Now the 350 is always in the pocket.
Coming from a 300, should be a nice stylistic and functional upgrade.
Go see it for yourself in person and post some of your impressions
when you get yours. I hope this helps. Have fun.
