I just purchased an HX260S - it was enough cheaper than the 350 that I 
figured I'd go with it instead ($160 vs. $225--  West Marine was having a 10% 
off sale for any of them).  A number of the people I paddle with have the 260 
and like them.  The only obvious differences were a slightly lower batter 
life for the 260, and the 260 doesn't have ports for connecting an external 
mic or speaker.
Anybody have comments on whether the 350 is enough better to warrant the 
extra money?  A friend of mine bought the 460, which looks good but is twice 
the money as the 260, so I didn't opt for that.
