I know this is an old thread but found it while googling PRS 505 freezing. My reader keeps freezing while opening various types of books, from rtf to pdf etc. Tends to freezing when I try to open the book, rather than while page turning - though this has happened. One of the PDFs was the User's Guide. Any ideas? Have I got a dud reader?

What is a soft reset? I've done the pin in the back thing, is that a hard reset?

Is it my imagination or does the reader slow down the more books you put on it?
