Now that I checked the lower left disc is better on the 500- gives more feedback if you pushed it. The 505 is not so nice, less "clicky" feedback and does not always seem to work (you push in for page turn, think you got feedback but the page does not turn). Its just not as crisp- too mushy. I end up pushing a little harder on the 505( as compared to the 500) and it always works, maybe it needs a break-in period. Mainly I use the page turn button on the right edge. But I didn't even think of the disc being a problem till I read the above post
( now I see the problem for me is I switch back and forth between the two units and the switch is different - if I just use the 505 I adjust to how the disc switch works and it is fine, no extra pressure )
