i'm surprised it weighs the same as the K2, the K2 looks lighter to me (and yes i do realise just how absurd that sounds  ).

I thought the 700 would be much lighter but that metal casing is heavier than I imagined. The reality is that without their covers the 700 = 10 oz and K2 = 10.2 oz. Now if you add the covers, that's a whole different thing. My M-Edge cover is heavier and thicker than the cover for the 700. Padding and that decorative strip of leather on my case add to the thickness.
It's a great reader with some great features. One day there may really be a "Kinny" that combines the best of both. I'm still fully Kindle-zed but it's fun to play in someone else's reader world for a while.
