After looking at them side-by-side (see the video I just uploaded) I am returning the PRS-600. I really wanted to like it, but there is too much a compromise on the screen to get the other benefits of the PRS-600.
I was expecting that the contrast and clarity would be less than 505 (otherwise why continue it since they are close in price)...but the glare...
how bad is the glare compared to 505? is there much difference or just slightly more glare on 600?
From your comment on glare in the earlier post I got the feeling that the glare is very obvious and that it really detracts from the pleasure of reading..
