Interesting.

"What was available in Canada" played a big part of my decision, too. ePub format support was more important, though, so that's my choice. The third expectation was that the device itself will will be hacked and improved by the OI community, which has not materialized, mainly due to the quirks of 505 implementation.

Great piece of hardware, but Sony will, most likely, lose my business when I go for upgrade. "No software updates" policy of Sony is the reason why.
