When I got my 950 a year ago, I gave my 505 to my wife. After 4 years, it still works great. However, except to have teh honor of plugging it in to recharge or to load books on it, I am not permitted to touch the 505. My wife absolutely loves it. I offered to buy a new device for her, and she flatly refused. Of course, I wouldn't give up my 950, so I can understand her adamance about the 505.

It really is too bad that Sony had/has no clue about the ebook market. I think their devices are far superior to the competition. I don't think there is a current dedicated reader available that even comes close to being as good as the 950.

But I suspect that it won't be all that long where Sony simply gives up on the ereaders.
