Basically I 'need' a PRS-700 with the screen of my 505. I do most of my reading in poor light so a back/front light is essential and as a law student not being able to search and annotate on my 505 is killing me. To be honest nothing here, even the 600, really interests me that much simply as there is no lighting. I may change my mind if the 600 is a really good price and selling my 505 can get me close to the 600's buy in price. I hope they have kept the metal construction as for me its a major deal on my 505. It just feels so solid and professional. It breeds confidence in the product. Plastic would be a major turnoff.

Come on Sony, just make a 700 without a crappy screen, please please pretty please.
