Cos the way the $ is and the price of the 505 over here, there's not a lot in it, even with the vat. Is there anyone who has experience of importing the 505 before it was available here who may be able to offer some insight?

Well, As its only going on sale in the US later this month, probably not before the end of the month / next month depending on which resellers get it. Keep in mind that many of the sellers will not ship it overseas.
Also, Sony has almost never had international warranty's on its products as far as I'm aware. They have usually been region / market specific and pretty limited. So, its probably going to be US only.
Importing it to UK, means that you'r going to be hit by a Customs charge, of probably £50-60 pounds, so keep that cost in mind when you do so.
I do believe that Sony will bring it to Europe soon, but weather or not they do so before Christmas is probably going to depend on how their supply is, and I'm not very hopeful.
