I'm fairly certain that Scoob already has more modern eReaders than the PRS-505. He bought the 505 because its design is unique. Not everyone has the same criteria for choosing an eReader as you do.
For example, I use my Nook Glowlight 3 more than my Kobos because the warm screen is superior — and I like the side buttons (both pairs of them). I know there is a trade-off in the way the Nook handles fonts and in the firmware changes that I won't allow on the "old firmware" Glowlight 3, but I still prefer the screen and buttons enough to override those issues. Everyone makes their own choice about what's most important to them.
Choice is good.
