Actually I do have one.. or more precisely, I am borrowing the one I got my wife while I search for a replacement for my broken Jetbook (since I tend to read more than she does).

In general, I like the Sony readers, but what most anyone here will tell you is that Sony does not fully justify text in epubs. That is true of any of all the Sony readers except the 900. I suspect at this late date it is unlikely they will fix that in any of their preexisting readers... but if they do, the 300 and 600 are more likely than the 505.

Now mind you, if like me, you don't buy books with DRM, its no big deal since you can use Calibre to convert the book to LRF and then have fully justified text, but that is not practical with DRM'd books.
