Page turning might be slightly faster now (I never had a problem with this). I do see a HUGE speed increase in the menus - this was one of my biggest gripes about the 505. I have the NIV Bible on mine and it was almost unusable. Selecting it on the Sony book menu and clicking through to the TOC (book list) and then trying to select a chapter, literally took minutes before. Now it's downright zippy. Well done Sony! My only other gripe with the 505 is that the Next Page button should be slightly larger or more prominent. Not Kindlized, but maybe just raised up a bit more than the Previous page button would work. You should be able to find it without thinking, by touch. As I've used it over the past 9 months, I've gotten used to this poorly designed button and it no longer bothers me as much as it first did.
