At my local Best Buy the PRS-900 was the "shell with a picture" too, but I convinced a friend of mine who works there to let me try one of the real things... Connections are good things to have.
The PRS-600 at my store did respond, and I demo'd it in-store as a result. The mode its in for displays reminds me of the feature-tour that best buy has on all their computers on display.
The PRS-300 is a very good deal, and capable of more than the nook in regards to reading. The nook has some apps (chess, etc) but nothing that great. The PRS-300 is the budget reader, and it's a helluva good one!
