Looks like ZDNet got a hold of Sony's press kit ahead of everyone else:

nice !!! hm, that "more apps" on the 600 is intriguing... i'm glad they seem to have kept the overall interface of the 700, i think it's really well designed.

Sexy, just sexy!!!

I like the position of the ridge/groove on the left-hand side, makes it more book-like somehow.

I didn't like the design choices when these were first announced, but I hadn't seen the black 600, now I'm in lurve

I like the design of the 600. The 300... not so much.

Upgrade! Do I hear the crowd asking/demanding/begging for an upgrade route from earlier models?

yes you do, and it would appear that is a possibility :

Agreed, the new logo is much more effective. There doesn't seem to be a logo on the prs505 (i just checked).

zelda_pinwheel · 08-04-2009, 07:21 PM

more more effective and much classier too. those faux-italics really don't cut in on a READING DEVICE logo, seriously.

based on the photos, what do you think are the chances a 700 cover will work on a 600 ?
