BTW Thanks andybaby for the sizemodo. Nicely done. I think the PRS-700 is shorter than the 500/505 though, because it doesn't have the nav buttons. Any chance of cooking up a similar sizemodo for those?

the 700 and the 500 and the 505 all are within a few MM of eachother in Dimensions. the 700 is thicker, and slightly wider than the 505.
the 700 is also slightly smaller than a DVD case. so if you dont own a sony reader, just think of it as the size of a DVD case.
PRS 700 127.6 x 174.3 x 9.7 mm
PRS 505 122 x 175.....x 8mm
PRS 500 123.6 x 175.6 x 13.8mm (I dont trust this thickness.. it might be with case)
DVD case 135 x 190 x 14 mm
Kindle 135 x 190 x 23mm (as listed by Amazon... i think they are way off)
so as you see, the 505 is only half a Centimeter, or 1/5th of an inch less wide than the 700
