Start with those, figure out your dealbreaker points, and then research what's left. |
Good points. I would add internal memory size, expandable memory capability, display quality, portability, networking features and book availability to the list.
I would start by asking yourself what you read, how you read and where you read in order to set your criteria. For example, if you will read primarily at home and you require the largest font size, then the PRS-300's portability won't matter and the screen will be too small. If, however, you want to carry your device in your pocket and you use small to medium fonts then the 300 meets your needs.
