I personally wouldnt pay for the 950 but thats just because I see no need for wifi access. E-ink readers are not designed to be used like a tablet or a phone, surfing the internet is not really a feature i would recommend basing a purchase off of IMO they are just not designed to do well as an internet tablet. I would only get wifi (or 3g) if you want to download books on the go or use sites like wikipedia.

I love my 650 and though it cost more then some of the other readers I wouldnt trade it for the world. I love touch screen devices and the Sony's are much better then most others. The layout is nice, the features work great. I love it. If you like the 5" screen you can usually find the 350 on sale for around 130 bucks which is a great price IMO.

However I have never used a Nook so I cannot compare the feel of them, we dont have B&N here so it wasnt even a reader i looked much into.
