X as for the mod you came up with for the 505 to start autorun, I'd hold off on applying that until there is a new firmware available. The hacks I am doing are simple and if they don't work, you can always go to a hack that does work without fear of bricking. Anything more complex, I'd like to have tested first on a reader that doesn't matter if it bricks.

The joystick forward/back is for history forward/back. So if I was to change that, you'd lose that functionality. it was done on the 500 because the page turn buttons were on the left. Now we have the buttons on the right and the silver button bottom right. So seriously, I see no need to modify the joystick buttons.
