Confirmed. Let's just hope that T stands for touchscreen and not TFT. =P

I would also, like the others, like to advise you to stay away from the 900 because of the touchscreen overlay which affects the screen readability and clearness negatively. Only acceptable model from that series, if you manage to find it for cheap over there, would be the PRS-300, because it doesn't have the touchscreen overlay.
