Hello everyone.

I have been away from the forums and eReaders news for quite a while. For so long that I just realized that Sony released the new versions of hardware.

I currently own a PRS-600, it's about a year old and I've only read a handful of books on it.

Since I've seen the new PRS-350, I have been considering selling my current PRS-600 and getting a new one. However, I have an important question before I purchase one.

How is the font and contrast quality of the PRS-350 compared to the PRS-600? I have found that the PRS-600 gets excellent contrast only if positioned right and with the right type of light, whereas the Kindles that I've toyed with (demo ones at stores) seem to have perfect contrast no matter what. I'm a little jealous of the Kindle in that regard.

For a person like me that reads casually, I think a PRS-350 would be a good choice, compared to say the PRS-650. Because I don't really external storage.

And another question - I have purchased a few ebooks that have DRM protection. How do I go about deleting them from my current PRS-600 and giving them to my new device?
