The 600 will undoubtedly appeal to some whom enjoy the touch screen capability. This feature comes with a price though and that price is clarity. Call it reflection, glare, frosting or what you will but I think you will be hard pressed to find anyone but JSWolf who thinks that the 505 has more glare than the 600. Based on other threads I have read JSWolf has a unique and singular impression of what glare is.
Yes I was going to say pretty much the same thing. And he tends to say it as much as possible. Yet Jon did you buy the 600? Or just see it in a well lit store for a few minutes? I bought it and compared it to my non touchscreen e-ink device. I want to like it believe me but I can't get past the glare. I prefer a crisper screen. But I think Jon has a different dictionary than the rest of us since a couple of months ago he went on and on about his personal definition of what a troll was as opposed to what everyone else says a troll is...
