opt\sony\ebook\application\resources\applicationSt art.xml - the most important (though small) change
opt\sony\ebook\application\resources\scripts\main. xml - clock related change, not important
opt\sony\ebook\application\resources\scripts\kBook Icon.png - new icons

Fonts are changed as well, cyrillic glyphs are inserted. I plan to add glyphs from other compact (armenian, georgian etc, those with a couple of dozens of chars, not chinese, japanese) alphabets.

You normally don't lose content of internal memory when reflashing. I didn't loose it even though I've bricked my device about dozen of times (experimenting )

I confess I'm going to wait until you come up a fool-proof installation

Fred, I don't think the install process is going to imporve much (maybe instructions will). Did you follow instructions posted here:

On the bright side, as you see unbricking PRS-505 is not a big deal.
