What I would like to see for the PRS-505, and see as being possible for Sony to deliver, are:

- 5 levels of zoom for LRF (instead of the current 3 levels)
- fully justified epubs (I don't personally care, but I'm tired of seeing complaints about it )
- zoom for PDFs (ie: the way it was before the firmware upgrade) in addition to the current reflow

Other things I want but that are unlikely:

- arbitrary zoom for epub (instead of the current 3 levels)
- sort by number of pages
- add/delete/change category of a book while on device
