So all my searching has to be online, no hands-on which makes me nervous.

When I bought my 500, there were even less than
very, very VERY few eReaders in Albion. Ditto for 505. Got them from BHphotovideo from the USA. No regrets at all.
Yes, 505 has a better quality screen. Wrong. The screen is the same but 600&900 have touch screen over it, which adds glare. 300 has exactly the same quality screen as 505 BUT 1" smaller
If I had to choose, I would go for 6" with glare but not the smaller screen (at the end of the day you just have to hold it at a bit different angle to avoid the glare, people say they get used to the "adjustment practice" after a few weeks of use.).
900 has a better epub support than 300/505/600. Full justification.
I think if I were to buy ebook reader right now, I would go for brand new 900 from bhphotovideo. Yes, it is pricey, but if you look a bit ahead, in 6 months after the purchase you will forget you paid $150 more, but you are going to enjoy the reader "right now" for a few years at least. If you love reading, go for it. For any of them
