Hi -

I got my PRS-500 cheap a few months ago, and am happy with it, except
for the gray background. The words are definitely hard to read in dim light.

I'm told that the 505 has a much greater contrast, and a "whiter" shade of gray.

Can anyone confirm that the 505 screen is much better?

Thanks!
