Thanks for the advice everyone. The price was really really tempting but I'm going to try to hold out a little longer to find a PRS-505.

My concern over compatibility was that it seemed that the PRS-500 itself used some non-standard USB driver which made 64 bit compatibility difficult, even in third party software. I'm glad to hear that issue is resolved.
