So I was going to put my Sony Reader PRS-500 up on eBay, but before I do that I figured I would look into trading it. The reason I'm getting rid of the 500 is because I need to switch to a device with some form of input/note-taking. I'm leaning towards the Pocketbook 360, but I'm hesitating due to the smaller screen.

So does anybody have a 5" reader that they feel is too small and would like to trade for my 6" reader, so I can get some experience with a 5" screen?

Or does anybody have a touchscreen reader that they aren't keen on due to glare issues or the like (maybe some of those much-hated 700's still floating around)?

I'd also throw in some money, since essentially any device you'd be trading me would be worth more. Specifically, I'm thinking of the following devices, but if you have anything else with a 5" screen or a touchscreen that you want to trade me, let me know.

Sony PRS-300
Sony PRS-600
Sony PRS-700
Pocketbook 360

My PRS-500 is in great condition, with both of the firmware upgrades and all of the original contents of the box (charger, USB, cover, CD, documentation).
