I initially picked the 300 after comparing its screen side by side with the 600 in the store. I did this for about 30 minutes comparing the same text on both devices. I decided the increased clarity was more important than size or features. After living with it for a few days, the small screen started to bug me. So I purchased a 600. The interface (touch), speed and features were wonderful. I loved everything about it except for one thing: visual quality. I spent way too much time trying to find an angle so that the glare was not washing out the screen. I kept remembering how sharp and clear the screen of the 300 was. So instead, I looked all over the San Francisco Bay Area and managed to locate a new PSR-505. While it lacks the features of the 600, it gives me the two most important things: a big screen and incredible readability.

Good luck!

Regards, Peter
