My 500 doesn't take any 2 seconds to turn pages unless I'm doing something fancy like embedding fonts. It's closer to 1 second, perhaps a bit less. Of course that's "turn a page, read it, turn another page" timing.

I just did a test, pushing the button 10 times in rapid succession took 8 seconds to get to the 10th page. That's on an LRF book with no embedded fonts. That suggests that my 500 is doing a page every .8 seconds. The 505 isn't really faster, but it uses a different refresh scheme, so it seems faster than the 500.

Salt to taste.
