I know this is only for a PRS 505, but it doesn't look difficult to modify it for the original PRS 500. The screen sizes are the same, so if the bezel widths are about the same, the light wedge part would fit right? That is if the difference in thickness between the 505 and 500 keep things from fitting.

Just have to either scavenge the circular clip off an existing PRS 500 cover and glue in the right place of the Light Wedge Cover, or use some velcro sticky tape maybe.

Any one have the measurements of the 505 bezel around the screen to compare to the 500's?
