Nevertheless, I wish Sony had thought of the professional users, who need a larger screen of at least 9". For fiction reading my 505 does just fine. For technical stuff I use my DRS1000, which cannot compare to Sony quality, regarding fabrication, material, look and feel and software stability.
I do not care about WiFi. That is a feature I really do not need, since selecting a book from my 'library' is always easier on a computer than on the reader.
Even Amazon has seen the need for a bigger reader. I cannot fathom Sony's business strategy… 
Just disappointing…

Sony is waiting for the plastic backed device screen, instead of glass, before plunging into the larger screen model. IMHO this is a better business strategy that will be the best strategy. Sorry you are disappointed but if you broke your screen you would be even more disappointed.
