I was originally tempted by the Paperwhite, then decided to wait and see, and I'm so glad I did. I decided I'm going to hold out and wait for Sony to do a glow screen and hopefully do it better. I still love my 350s and don't really have any reason to even want a new reader other than the lighted screen to save having to carry around a light. But the 350 with the lighted cover is still smaller than the Paperwhite, so I'm not really saving anything there if I were to switch to a Paperwhite. And after reading all the problems with it, I'm very glad I didn't do an impulse buy.
There's so many reasons I stayed away from Kindles to begin with, I know I'd end up hating the software compared to the Sony even if I did like the lighted screen. I just hope Sony gets rid of the curved bottom, it's something that I really really hate and that would probably prevent me from buying a Sony if it still has it. Yes, I know, I'm really picky. Same with the high gloss finishes, but at least you can put a skin over that to get rid of it.
