I have used it in the plane, in my room at night or just in plain daylight and I just could not handle it..
Using it for more than a week is enough for me.. I think, the sample unit in the stores does not do enough justice on the glare of the screen, you have to spend time with it.. dont get me wrong, I think the PRS-600 is one of the best reader out there its just that the screen really does have that glare on it that you just cant ignore..

i wish you guys who has it the best, im probably going back with my Stanza iphone app for now...

ohh, I did get a PS3 out of the returned reader..lol

thanks everyone!

The reflectivity of the PRS600 display is one reason why I opted for the 300 instead. Plus, I didn't really see much need for a touch screen or the ability to make annotations on an e-book. Although a bigger display (which the '300 doesn't have) would have been nice to have.
