I think it is a valid convern with the 900. The 700 came and went so fast I hardly even saw it.

I find it could be an issue, but it has not been for me on the 700, and I doubt it would be on the 600. But then, for those for whom their perception of "blurriness" and "glare" on the 600 is an issue, then it would be for them. Get it?

It sound like the 600 and 900 are not the eReaders for you. I personally love my 700, and feel the extra screen real estate of the 900 might be a nice improvement.

So you don't find the smaller screen size and fewer lines per page and issue? I certainly do!
It's all in personal perception. As I stated originally. :

... and don't let Jon hear you talking about "glare" on the 600. In that your perception is completely figmentary!
