For what it's worth: I had a 350; it broke; they were no longer available nearby; I got a T1. I'm happy with it, but I also really wanted wifi. I do miss how teeny the 350 was.

Upsides of the T1: wifi, wifi, wifi. And better PDF handling (not just because it's a bigger screen; the scrolling and zooming work more smoothly). Also, I think better freeform writing with the stylus. I've had no trouble with the software; if anything it seems more stable to me.

Downsides of the T1: it's bigger (tho not much heavier!). And I miss the metal frame. Stylus not integrated.

If either of the upsides are tempting to you, I'd say hold it in your hand, try some page turns, and see how it feels.
