Just a couple of points - as I understood it, the Kindle & the Sony 505 use the same screen, so I'd not actually expect there to be any difference there.

As for PDF's, the Kindle doesn't read PDF directly and you have to convert them to another format, although that can be done by emailing them to your Amazon account. Results are variable & source-dependent.

The Sony will read PDFs directly & let you view them as is, which is normally too small to read in portrait if the pages are designed for A4/Ltr but OK when the device is toggled to Landscape mode, or will reflow the text with a bigger font - works reasonably well for text-based PDFS, but in that mode you get odd formatting (page-breaks) & limited images.
