I'm sorry to hear about your 505!! I have a 950 that I love *so much* but I still tend to use my 505 quite a bit. I don't have a proper cover for my 950 yet so I use that when reading in bed or on the couch, places that I feel reasonably safe with it. My 505 is my throw-around reader, and boy is it hardy. And while it doesn't have a pearl screen and the contrast is not as good as my 950's, the 505 is still remarkably clear and so readable, unless in low light conditions. It was a lovely device, but every time I use it now I sorely miss the dictionary feature of my 950.
I would say move on to one of the more recent readers. The x50 series are like works of art. My 950 is seriously a beautiful device, I've said it so many times! and I bet the 650 is too. The 350 wasn't for me, although I still have mine.. still within the return period to Sony, or I may try to pass it off here. I just love the large screen of the 950 so much. and I'm sure the Wi-Fi feature of the T1 is awesome-wireless library lending! Downloading from my Sugarsync account! I don't like the looks of the T1 much but I liked it much better in the pictures where someone skinned it with a matte black skin.
