Well, *I* prefer the controls - I'm always bumping one of the 0-9 function keys on the PRS500. I prefer the ability to choose font families - and eventually be able to load my own. I prefer being able to choose from nine different font sizes - sometimes I don't have the booklight, nor my reading glasses, and being able to nudge up to just the right larger font size is a blessing. I prefer the noticeably lighter weight. I'm going to rummage around for the food scale so I'll be able to tell you the exact weight difference.

And as I learn more about it and updates come my way, I'll point out more. I'm taking notes right now...
