If you own a 505, you might strongly dislike the reflection on 600. This problem, I believe, is multiplied by one's experience with 505. I rarely notice the reflection on 600 but, too bad, am constantly reminded by 505 owners that there is such a problem. When I read on my 600, I have no problem. After reading those complaints, I start seeing the reflection when a question pops up in my head "Is there a reflection?" (I guess it would be better for me to stay away from complaints about 600 screen for the better).

If you have/had 505 or have doubts about 600 screen, 505 is likely to be a better choice for you.

More importantly, I use my 600 for non-recreational purpose. No kidding: It is more EFFICIENT for me to use 600, rather than 505 (I had 505 for a week and returned it back).

I love my 600 and am happy with it. My one cent .
bhs, you are correct about the non-recreational purpose. I need one for college classes so I can annotate my papers which I download on to it. I got the 700 for this purpose, but the key board is just too awkward. I really needed hand writing recognition. I also desired a dictionary, which the 700 does not have. The 600 offers this, which is precisely what I have missed since giving up my beloved ebw 1150, which could not support pdf's to my satisfaction.
