Interesting how different we see it. After using it for a day, I find that I wouldn't buy the 700 if it were 20$. I'd much rather pick up an "old-fashion" paper book. I would still gladly pay the $300 for 505 - it's screen is a marvel to look at.

My fiancee looked at 700 and her first reaction was to ask if I am sure the screen is not defective =) ."Why would they make an unreadable reader?". I can't say I have a good answer. Perhaps if you use of the built-in light very often? She's using a Red 505 and likes that one a lot.
