Now to be clear, I'm not saying the 505 isn't a good or great reader because that wouldn't be true...

Yes, but you are focusing on reader features and ignoring the system and formats which is just as, if not more important. To me this makes the kindle far from an upgrade when the entire system is considered (at least at this point in time) when choosing.

I'm hoping that Amazon will see the light and embrace the epub format, then we can all truly rejoice. (well and once we get past DRM once and for all! )
