The 2nd blue reader I got wasn't new, but was in pristine condition, including the unbroken original stylus. I have been able to get new silver ones still in the US, but it was a royal pain getting a blue one from the UK since I'm in the US. And like you, if my batteries ever start dying, I'll get new batteries for them and make them last as long as possible.

Right now the most recent version of PRS+ since December is 2.1.0.2 alpha. But it's so stable, I haven't had one issue with it at all. Once in awhile someone will post with an odd bug that's not reproducible by others, so it's not certain if it's because of PRS+ or not. But I've used PRS+ since my first 350 and I wouldn't be without it. It's like having a new reader with all the options you'll have.

Once you create one CSS sheet for your font, all you need to do is rename the fonts within it and save it naming the various sheets for the various fonts you want to try. I haven't had any problems with the CSS sheets at all.

Of course if there's an epub with an embedded font, you will still need to strip the epub of that embedded font as usual, but that's the same with most every reader, they can't override embedded fonts.

If you decide you don't like it though, it's easy enough to flash back and remove PRS+ too. I don't think there's any chance of bricking the 350 or 650 with it.
