Everyone is kinda all over the place. Looks in 50% of some go one way, and 50% go the other.

I have a Kindle DX that is probably going back, (no ability to do folders or tags at all), and I took my Kindle and Sony 505 I have up to compare at a store with the Sony 600 and 300. Sony contrast on 505 was better than 300, and I just wanted more of a matt finish rather than 600.

Having said all that, I passed on the Sony 600, (despite great speed), but Sony 505 contrast is great and 300 is just too similar, so why spend the money. Really was anticipating the 900 coming out soon, but unless contrast improves with that touchscreen, I would stick with the 505.

Kinda funny too, since I bought that 505 in late '07.
