I bought the 300 for the same reason I always buy paperbacks, the size. I played with a 505 for a few days, but ultimately came back to the 300. The text size on the screens of both was the same, just a couple less lines of it on the 300. I never notice when I'm reading. It's much easier to hold with one hand for me, too.

Also, I prefer the larger internal memory and not having to deal with an SD card, just wish it had even more. I have several technical pfd's on it that are 20-30 mgs each. That was my big test for the 505 and they read the same on the 300.
