That's exactly what I permanently try to explain to the critics about Sony 600 or 900:
A friend of mine bought Sony 700 18 months ago. He did love it and now replaced it by Sony 600. Every time he sees one of my non-touchscreen readers, he's briefly disappointed about glare and contrast of his Sony (first 700, now 600).
But when he uses his Sony 600 again, standalone without permanently doing abstract comparisons, he's absolutely happy.
That's why Sony 900 still is my #1 unit. Yes, iRex 800 or BeBook Neo (both WACOM screens) have less glare. But Sony 900 is more than acceptable and simply a beauty.
Don't listen to those critics, be happy about your great Sony gadgets.
