Also, anything you've purchased on the Kobo bookstore would sync to the Kobo Mini so you wouldn't *have* to deal with two different ecosystems (unless you mainly read free books/library books - then it is not an issue at all).
My hubby and I both bought eReaders about a month ago. He got a nice deal on a refurb/clearance PRS-350, and I picked up the Mini (thinking I'd like the fact that it has Wifi) on sale for about $10 less. Honestly, I don't really use the Wifi so that was a bit of an unnecessary feature - but it is handy from time to time. I liked the fact that the Mini was just that little bit smaller, and I fell for the changeable back cover idea...
When all is said and done, I LOVE my Mini, and I love that it sits in my hand better than the PRS-350 (weighs slightly less and has a decent sized bezel to hold on to), but my hubby loves the 350 over the Mini, as it has a more substantial build quality. He also likes the option of being able to use a touch screen OR buttons depending on his mood. Personally, I have trouble adjusting to the "swipe" page turns on his. On the Kobo, you can just tap the page and it turns.
All a matter of preference. I must admit, the 350 does looks so much more "business" than the Kobo Mini.
