And while books can be found on many sites, they aren't children's books. I might wait and see what books Borders will have in it's new ebook store. However, if Borders has the same books as Kobo (lists a mere 500 children books), unfortunately, we'll have to go w/ the "top 2".
I was thinking about the 300 for a child, but forgot that it didn't have a touchscreen and no dictionary.

As far as glare issues, I have the 700 (the worst of the bunch for screen clarity) and I have no trouble reading on it, never had and I have much older eyes!
