I understand your unhappiness. And I applaud your desire to keep your 500 alive for all eternity. Museums are going to desire them someday soon. I have a 500 (sadly w/broken screen). And I intend to keep my other ebook readers alive and active as long as possible.
But the ying of new technology is that the latest yang is going to supersede it.
It is the Zen of neotech. And the art of neocapitalism.
I wouldn't call it planned obsolescence as much as expected orphanism.
So it goes.
