Do you think the screen of the DE will be of better quality than that of the TE? DE has 16 levels of grayscale, and TE only 8. However, the problems with the PRS-600 screen are glare and contrast, and, as far as I know, the levels of gray don't affect that. Still, it could be an indication of a more advanced screen.

How important is wireless to you? Is there a slight chance that we will be able to check our emails on a Daily Edition?

Well, it seems that I am little bit confused now. I wonder if I am the only one.
I'm one of those who can't get much cell signal in my area, so the connectivity isn't an issue. I have tried out the PDF on my 600 - the text part works well, sometimes a bit "clunky" when I enlarge the text depending on how its formatted. And the sideways and zoom on the 600 make it easy to "peek" at the documents that don't do as well.

I got the 600 for $299 minus a $100 credit card rebate - so the idea of spending $400 for something just a bit bigger wasn't a big draw for me.
