I ordered the 505 as people said that the screen was clearer than the 700 and since I've had no experience with ebooks in the past I was wondering if maybe that would be a better option with touch screen, light, etc.
What do you think?
Thanks

Hi nate.
I have just got my 700 2 weeks ago, and imo the glare is there and you will notice it but its absolutely does not make the reader unusable! if you are particular about glare and such; yes you will find it annoying and be unhappy. But I have read in pure daylight, under fluorescent bulbs and in dim lighting. works well all you have to do is slightly tilt it until the glare is off the reader. The big bonus to the 700; and the reason I purchased it is its SD card capability and its flexibility for a multitude of documents.
I recommend going to a Sony style store or a borders and checking it out in person b4 you invest. I did that and saw the glare thing is not as serious as it sounds on some threads.
hope this helped
