Yes, that is true. I tried to read 20 pages and each time I have to catch the right angle to make screen readable.
This sounds like you're walking while your reading.

I have both the 505 and the 700. I haven't picked up the 505 since I got my 700. The image is just fine for my eyes and, yes, you do have adjust the angle to find that sweet spot, but only once.
The lighting, touch screen, speed, ergonomics and just plain uncluttered look of the 700 won me over. Someone else in the family is equally enjoying the 500. It's a matter of personal choice, and the choice was easy for me.
