some of the hacks for the 505 I find useful. I like the center button turn off. I like the joypad turn page and I also changed the font to one that was bolder and recommended as best from the forum rooms. Easy to do and gives more options to making the 505 easier to use. I now have 3 ways to turn the pages and could have more if I wanted too and it allows me to hold the 505 in more comfortable ways. I can now hold the ereader in left or right hand and turning pages feels so much more natural. So maybe check them out and experiment with them.

If I'm not gonna use the sony for 1/2 day or a day , the center button turn off is quick and easy.

Good luck with your 505.
