I would recommend the 600 for the parent providing they will use a good light for reading. The weaker contrast is minimized to the point of none issue for me (others would disagree). Otherwise the 300 is probably a better choice for plain reading due to its superior clarity and contrast, IMHO.
I have loaded pdf's and free epub's to an SDHC card. No problems with that. I can't seem to get the Sony Library software to run on my PC at work, so the memory cards are one work around.
