PRS-600 Some more photos of PRS-600 v PRS-700

komugi · 09-11-2009, 02:48 PM

I thought I'd snap some photos for you guys for reference before I return my PRS-600. Let me know if you want additional photos of it, I'll still have the PRS-600 through this weekend (9/11).

Warning for 56k (if those still exist?) each image is about 3-4MB.
Since the board is limited to 1.5MB, I decided to use my own host, and didn't resize the image.

Edit:
Page Turn Comparison 35~MB

Haha, taking this video, I realized I need some nail clippers. Just got back from a business trip for a week or so =P

Anyway, enjoy.

great photos, thank you ! you can really see the difference between the two screens. why are you returning the 600, out of curiosity ?

It's mainly just the little things like button placement, (or lack thereof on the PRS-600) that I've gotten used to with the PRS-700, although there is a difference in clarity, the issue never bothered me too much to begin with. I find that in terms of usability, I prefer PRS-700 over the 600.

And overall, its almost the same exact reader, so it's also pretty hard to justify an additional $299 purchase.

Now all I want is a firmware update for 700 for dictionary.

Now I feel like a moron for posting before I clicked the next page in the forum.

Thanks for the images. The 600 looks to have improved in clarity and speed. Has this been your experience?

Pretty much. I enjoyed PRS-600, if I didn't already get used to my PRs-700, I probably would've kept mine.
