The screen's the main thing - better in low light & slightly whiter. Apparently it's the sort of thing that you might initially discount when first looking at the 505, but after a few days with it, you'd notice it is you switched back to the 500.
Different case clips & the 505 appears as a native USB device are the other basic differences, with the V1.1 firmware adding PDF reflow & ePub support.
Gwyn (Lydney, Gloucestershire - Let me know if you get to this edge of the county & want to see a 505, although I'd hope that the Waterstones in Gloucester had one.)
