I think I may like the 7" screen over 5" or 6"; but not sure. The 950 is about $60 more than the 900 & I do not see that much difference.

Thank you in advance for your suggestions. I am excited about moving to an e-reader from these heavy hard cover books; although it will also be sad not feeling the pages.
There is a world of difference. The 900s had a bad glare problem due to the technology used for the touchscreen. The new touchscreen technology is infra-red which means the screen is as matte as any other e-readers that doesn't have a touchscreen.

You simply can't compare the 900 to the 950.

Make sure you buy a X50 or you will be bitterly disappointed. The only way to save some bucks is to go for a 505. These are button operated and the page turn is much slower, but were built like tanks.
