For many people the difference in screen clarity makes more of a difference than the other factors. The 505 is slightly slower and noticeably clearer. I got the 505 because I wasn't going to buy a reader that cost more than the 505 unless I got a noticeably better screen.
That was the deciding factor when I saw them side by side...still irks me that I don't have the newest one...
