Ok, ok, I am just kidding. But the PRS900 is a pretty handy device, and probably the one that best fits OP's needs.

But oh well, everyone has their opinion and, without a doubt, there is some glare on the PRS900. But it's not too bad, in my opinion - and certainly less than on previous readers by SONY.
The 600 is minor too... to me. I much prefer it over the 700, lol.

double click that to run it after you've extracted it. You need Java installed.

And technically, the resolution on the 600 is the same as the 6" Astek, I believe. Worse contrast, though.
Double click what?

I got it to work and it was easy to use but, unfortunately, only the display of the pages in the test file in Adobe Acrobat (and, I assume, Reader) were cropped. When displayed on the Mentor, the pages were still uncropped. So, Briss isn't going to work.

Btw, what are all the other .jar files for?
