The 2nd generation screen of the 505 (and the CyBook Gen3, Kindle, etc) is hugely better than the screen of your 500. The background is lighter, the letters are darker - it's much more "contrasty". When I had a 500, I found that I needed to use a reading light to read in normal artificial light. With my Gen3 I can read in any light that I could read a paper book in.
