Thanks for the info! I have an *urgent* request (as I'm debating whether to pick up a 505 model and add Russian support): How is the Support added for the 505 model? Could you (or anyone else here who understands Russian) let me know how it's done on the 505? There's a thread on the above site with instructions and links to files--in Russian!

I basically need to know ASAP (please?) if the upgrade merely involves loading files on an SD card and doing a reflash (which I've done on the 500 model), or if it is more complicated than that.

I'm hoping to get the new Reader (500 or 505) and add Russian support by next week, so any info on the upgrade process for the 505 would be *most* welcome. (Otherwise, I might play it safe and pick up a 500 model, which I know how to flash using an SD card.)

Also, if the 505 can apparently be flashed (there are pics of the process in the Russian forums linked above), is there also a clock display hack?

The above forums also include a thread on a 'cumulative' hack for the 500 which adds Russian fonts, clock display, joystick page turn, etc. Is this hack updated and current?

Thanks for *any* help here!
