Hi, vxf. I just wanted to add that I think the 950 & 350 make a good combo too. My 950 is my favorite ereader because I love the 7" screen. However, I enjoy reading on the 350 more than I thought I would and was surprised to find that it doesn't seem too small after all. I couldn't resist the pink color. I also got the matching pink lighted cover. I just spent two weeks on an international trip. I decided to take the 350 with me. It was the perfect size to fit lightly in my handbag. It was compact and easy to read while I was out and about dining solo or traveling on public transportation. The lighted cover was great for the international portion of my flights too. I was able to use the light to read rather than have the overhead seat light on. Completely off-topic, I didn't observe any ereaders on my outbound flights. However, coming back to the US, I spotted a Kindle 2 and a Nook classic. Then on my domestic flight home, a guy in my aisle had a Kindle DXG and another lady had an iPad. My flights were codeshare so I actually flew 3 different airlines on this trip. I noticed that 2 of the airlines made specific announcements that "ebooks" were considered electronics and must be turned off just like your phone or music player.
I am looking for a pink 350 with pink cover with light for my better half. I regret not buying the cover when it was available on SONY's store...

I actually have not heard that plane announcement yet - anything singling out readers specifically. But on an Alitalia flight last year, the flight attendant did not let me use the reader for the ENTIRE flight, because 'it is not an approved device'. Incredible
