I'll answer the best I can.
1. Are the colors applied to the cases done where they will not peel or scratch off through time? I believe the colors are baked into the metal/plastic casing. The colors don't seem to fade/peel/scratch over time.
2. Can either of them play audiobooks? Not sure about the 600 as I haven't tried it but I know for sure the 300 will not play audio books.
3. I hate the internet as any slight problem some people have tends to be blown out of proportion in relation to how many enjoy the device. My understanding is the 300 has fantastic contrast, rivaling the 505 and out performing the Kindle. I keep hearing to the point where one would think the 600 is not even readable. I just want to make sure from some one who has a 600 that the contrast and glare issue is not as bad as the internet hype is making it sound. I, for one, do not think the contrast is as bad as some make it out to be. Granted the 600 contrast is not as good as the 505 or 300 but it is definitely readable. As with any e-ink device the less light you have the less readable it becomes. With the 600 you just have to make sure you have adequate lighting conditions. The contrast differences are subjective based upon each individual user and what they are willing to accept.
4. How much difference does the 1inch in size difference make? Is it more like reading a book on the iphone or is it manageable. I would assume I would be using the L font. If this is the case how much more text or less text would I see on each page. From what I've heard, on the small text size it is a matter of a few less lines of text per screen. I imagine it would be much better than reading on an iphone. The font sized you use would depend on the book, but I see the 5" as a very readable device.
