Rumor: Sony Prepping PRS-350 & PRS-650 Readers - May Feature More Internal Storage, Wi-Fi & 3G

TFTS – Technology, Gadgets & Curiosities: "Both the PRS-350 and the PRS-650 are said to be 'extremely thin' coming in at under 10mm in thickness. As for the display, the PRS-350 will be 5 inches and the PRS-650 will be 6 inches, both of which should also come with faster page turns and improved contrast. In terms of storage, they are expected to see an increase over previous Reader devices and could go as high as 2GB of internal storage, though it was unclear if that was for both models or just the higher end PRS-650. Furthermore, the PRS-650 is also expected to have Wi-Fi and possibly 3G connectivity while the PRS-350 remains wireless free. Both models should also arrive sporting an updated Sony Reader user interface with a new home screen and note taking software."
