How does it behave with a single spot light? I do a lot of my reading with an LED booklight, which already has some fairly considerable glare on the 505 screen.
Also: do you find that the breadth of reading angle is diminished with the 600 screen? I remember some reviews of the 700 saying that the screen was not as legible at oblique angles as the 505 (or Kindle) screen. Have you found this to be the case?

Here is a photo I just took of my 600 using a LED reading light:



This is probably the best I can do to represent the screen quality of the 600 photographically.
