I believe my 505 only reads BeBB (someone gave me the reader and I've never really used it). If I install the Sony Reader software and connect the reader, that should update the firmware, right?

I don't think so. I don't think you need the Sony Reader software at all, but you will need the PRS-505_Updater_xxxxx.exe application.
I asked the same question last December and was given a link to the firmware that no longer works...

But I do have the file (fortunately). I think it's less than 19MB (I incorrectly wrote kilobytes, sorry.) I'll see if I can put it up on my Google Drive.
(PM sent.) I "compressed" the single file into a zip since some virus checkers don't like downloading .exe files.
