Drgnbear hit the nail on the head for me. I've had it an hour and have been able to compare the 500 and 505 in all the light conditions I can find. Yes, it is a somewhat suttle improvement just comparing in one light source but changing light conditions makes a major difference. I haven't spent a few hours reading yet but I can clearly see how the new screeen is going to be a welcome sight.

It's obvious there is quite a difference when one examines each in various lighting conditions and I think reading time is going to be the justifier leaving no doubt the new screen is far superior.

Just me initial .02 worth.
