Then 505 is without integrated light which I started loving more and more on my 700 once I got used to its slightly eerie feeling, and that is quite important for me.

I would not buy the 505 unless almost free, while I was willing to spend 400+tax+2 year plan on the 700 on sight, and while the first time I saw it in the store it was not available, the second time it was and I bought it...

So think what is important. If you are a fast reader and read a lot, the slowness of the 505 may annoy you a lot.
I find that if I begin turning the page slightly before I finish reading the page makes the page turning run much more smoothly. The trick is learning when to anticipate the need for the next page.
