I purchased sony prs 600 from sonystyle 2 days ago and I confirm that prs 600 has more glare than any device I have seen and used so far such as kindle 1 & 2, sony 505 and astak, actually I could see myself in the screen at all angles and even comb my hairs and it proved to be distracting and interferes with your reading and forget about reading in daylight its quality goes down significantly.

I have shown it to my 3 coworkers and they all confirmed it. I don't know whats with sony making all great improvments in the device but screw up the screen as they did in prs 700. I am returning it today and taking 15% hit on return.

Newbie in ebooks who have sony 600 as their first device may not notice it though as they have not seen other screens.
