Interesting review.

I see most members are US based and the PRS-505 is old news. In Europe it is still being sold as the 'New Sony Reader'. The PRS-300 are coming soon and are available on pre-order.

I see the two devices as being very similar. PRS-505 about £25 more expensive and slightly larger, but with MP3 and card storage which is nice for audio books.

So for someone looking for a first reader what are the specific features of the PRS-300 that make it better than the PRS-505?
