If there was not this glare/reflection proclem, I would already have bought the PRS-600 (provided I could source it !)

i've seen it in person already and the screen is really quite useable, there is a bit more reflection than on a screen with no touch layer but it doesn't bother me (i have a 700, though, and that one didn't bother me either...
the 600 screen is definitely better than the 700, for contrast and reflection).
personally i've tried models with and without touch screen, and i really love the comfort and convenience of the touch screen, now i would really have a hard time giving it up. and dictionary is really important to me too, so i'm definitely getting a 600.
(it doesn't mean i won't be happy to see a touch-screen model which retains the display appearance of the "naked" e-ink screen though !)
but i guess you'll go to the sony store Georges V to see it yourself, then you can decide what you think. just a word of caution, i don't know this sony store, but often in big stores you have really bright overhead halogen spots ; those are the worst possible lighting for this liseuse. try to take a look in daylight if you can (near a window, at the least) to get a better idea.

@Patricia & Zelda: Thanks a lot for the invite, I really appreciate it. Unfortunately we already have guests on this day so it would be insensitive of me to have the apero outside !

no worries, we have them about every 3 months ; the next one will be in december, hopefully you can come then.
