It's nothing like today's touch devices, and it's kind of fun experiencing it again.
I don't know where @nofish lives, but if he lives in the USA, he can get a Kobo Aura 2 Walmart edition for about $70. I had a look on eBay and to buy another 505 is going ot cost around $30 and then you have to add in hipping. I have no idea where to get the parts he needs to fix his 505. I did a good search and nothing came up to buy the parts.

It's not worth the cost to buy another 505. You can get a much better Reader for not that much more. And then there are even better readers then the Aura 2. Right not, Walmart has the Kobo Clara HD on sale for $99.96.
