1. Unpack this zip file http://projects.mobileread.com/reade...0.00.08130.zip in your SD or Memory Stick PRO card keeping all the paths unchanged.
1a. If you want to use a different image file, remove from the root directory of the card file new_opt.img. Copy your image file into the root directory of the card and rename it to new_opt.img.

Thanks a mil!!!

One minor Q: What does the image file do, and where do I get a different one? Is that the file that contains hacks? Are there any for the 505?
Anyway, now I'm gonna look for either a 505 or a 500 locally. Seems like adding support to either model isn't hard at all.
BTW, is the current model being sold the
1.0.00.08130 version, or could I easily wind up buying a Reader that can't be upgraded?
