At $145, I don't know how much of a deal it is...but I figure there may be some of you out there who might be interested in a bigger Reader.

If you have no idea how PRS-900 compares to others. No, just say no. Readability wise, it was not an upgrade from 505 or 300, my 900 is still sleeping in the box. (It was better than 600, if you only know how bad 600 was.)

Aw... poor PRS-600 gets no love...

I loved my PRS-600, which was my first eInk reader (had an RCA REB1100 before that). It was a little frustrating at times and I managed to get one of the ones that the display faded in direct sunlight (which I only noticed after having it a couple of years), and, of course, the touchscreen made it not as crisp as the non-touchscreen ones. I never upgraded to the PRS-650, but I still loved it enough to buy a PRS-T1 a couple of months ago. I love my T1 and how much crisper the screen is and how much lighter it is than the 600.

It's true. The PRS-950 was a major upgrade in terms of readability.
