But -- I always feel like I'm about to scratch the screen with the stylus. It feels like it 'digs in'. Havent seen scratches yet tho. But I don't want to put a protector on the screen cuz that will add yet another layer of dimness. So I used an old palm pilot trick: I wiped the screen down with some silicon spray. Now its *slick* (Silicon spray is non-oil based, its 'dry'). The stylus slides around like on an ice rink. Much nicer to write with.
Interesting point about the stylus - it does "feel" very scratchy and it puts me off using it. I'm well used to a nintendo ds touch screen and this never felt scratchy to write on and it also didn't have the delay between drawing on the screen and something appearing. I may well use your tip thanks.

I agree that the 600 is not perfect, it has some areas which could well be improved on. But it is still a very good ereader and I've done way more reading since I've had it so on that point it works
