The screens are the same the resolution is different. I can read one whole font size smaller on the 350 as on the 650. Also there were vast comparisons made between the Sony and the Kindle and it turned out, the Kindle screen was not better, it just looked better due to the different font they use. When someone uploaded the same font on their Sony and made side-by-side fotos, they looked alike. It is somewhere here on the forums but I am too lazy to search for it (its 32°C here).
As the Nook has a variety of fonts the Sony does not have, I am quite sure this is what makes a difference at first glance and nothing else.
Why should a big company desert to cheat on their custumers? They want to stay in business and given their prices they will know pretty well, they have to rely on their being said to have the best hardware available.
