I just canceled my pre-order on a PRS-600 and picked up a Red 505 at the PX. They have them marked down to $197. So I got the Reader, an overpriced ($30) wall charger, and a Book Armor case for less than a PRS-600.

What really led to me switching models though was videos on the net comparing the screen quality of the 505 and 600.

My screen is closer to white than gray. One thing I was worried about was slow page turns, but it turns pages much faster than I do with a book since I read books with one had as well and have to reach up to turn the page.
