Is there any way to change the font size? For my poor old eyes medium is too large and small is too small. I have read about PRS+ and don't think that this has anything in this area.
PRS+ allows you to store a set of your own css files in a special directory on the Sony to customise how epubs will display on your Sony. Many people use them just to customise the font displayed, but many also use them to get a better range of font-sizes than the Sony zoom button. You can use any css rules you like in them. You can quickly switch between stored css files until you get a font-size which looks good for you. PRS+ has many benefits for Sony users, I recommend it.

I've never owned a PRS600 (or an iPad for that matter), but assuming it works the same as a PRS505 (the previous model) or PRS650 (the following model), the answer is yes. The only thing to consider is that if you want to use the same epub on both the PRS600 and the iPad, can you hack the css with a font-size which would suit both devices.

The choice is yours.
