Took the plunge, saying Hi

Hi guys, I've been eying ebook readers for a couple years now, and finally decided to just go for it. I got a PRS-500U2 refurb from the sony style store, only $199. anyways, I have two questions: whats the difference between the PRS-500 and the PRS-500U2

and second, I got the PRS-500U2 at $100 cheaper than the PRS-505. What's the difference between the 500U2 and the 505, and is the 505 worth an extra $100?


Well thanks in advance, and nice to meet you all.

Oh, and any advice on where I can get a bunch of free/public domain books?

Lots of free public domain books at project gutenberg. Lots and lots.

There are also books uploaded to these forums, this is the sony ebook forum:

Feedbooks has nicely formatted ebooks.

Look around the forums here, you'll find people mentioning others.
