Maui, if you do upgrade to the 505, I suggest you also buy Sony's warranty that covers any and all damage to or failure of the 505. I bought a 3-year warranty for $70, which I consider cheap insurance for a device that I use so much (I use it not less than 3 hours every day, and often closer to 6-7 hours). Under the warranty (I think you have to ask for the accidental damage coverage, I can't remember now), everything and anything is covered, including accidentally sitting on the Reader or your 2-year-old trying to make it float in the bath
