after awhile, the page blink in eink doesn't bother you, and it's pretty fast in the 350 - faster than my K2 Kindle.

I fully charged my Sony a couple of days ago, put it to sleep, and didn't touch it for 3 days... now I'm recharging it and it's acting like the battery power was completely exhausted, and taking forever to recharge. Next time I don't use it for awhile, I'll make sure to turn it completely off. This is not an issue with my kindle.

One complaint I have about the 350 that I didn't expect: the metal bezel is quite cold in my hands, and makes my wrists ache (I have carpal tunnel). I'm waiting to get a DecalGirl skin for it, and hope that the vinyl will be warmer to the touch.

One thing I loved about using the Sony with Calibre: it automatically created collections for me based on the series tags I'd put in the files with Calibre. Nice!

The advantage of eink over a color unit such as the NookColor is battery life. I get about 2 weeks on my K2, and expect to get that with the Sony as long as I remember to turn it totally off between uses rather than just let it go to sleep.
