Because the quality degradation on the PRS-600's screen is due to the touch layer on it, and the 900 has the same touch screen as the 600. I've not actually seen one, no, but I'd be willing to wager a large sum of money that it will be exactly the same, quality wise.

Actually, the 900 has the biggest reading area around possibly topping the Amazon Kindle DX since the latter's area is partially filled with a keyboard.
The biggest Sony, certainly. Nowhere near the size of the 10" screen of the iRex DR1000, though.

I was considering a BN Nook but part of its screen is filled with a color LCD control panel reducing the reading area.
No. The LCD screen is separate. The "reading screen" of the nook is a standard 6" screen - the same as that used by any other 6" device. The colour LCD screen doesn't reduce the size of it.
