Looking forward to seeing B&N's new e-ink model, if that's what it turns out to be.
I have a 650 and you don't need to run for the cloth every time you touch the touchscreen. It's actually quite nice the way it takes a while before you'll need to get the cloth. You actually see more fingerprints when the screen is off then when it's on.
