With a 6" display this is less of an issue since you can use a larger font size (similar to the medium one on the PRS-350) without the text formatting issues the PRS-350 has.

I have both and I read a smaller font size on the 350 than on the 650 due to the font being clearer on the small one which has the same dpi as the big one. Actually I have more text on the 350 this way as on the 650. This is why I prefer reading on the 350 even after I bought the 650.
If the font size bugs you, just convert your books to LRF. The gaps between font sizes are considerably smaller.

No, you don't. No MP3s, no audio feature at all, no foreign language dictionaries, no collections or comparable feature. You will get a couple of gimmicky social stuff for those who have no real friends and a cheapo rubber case with a pearl screen that will be just the new standard screen from now on. The only thing they do better with their reader is the 6 different fonts. But they can't compare to the x50 in performance.
