There are Russification packages for reflashing PRS-500.
I have done it to my old reader.
I consider myself power user and even for me it was highly non-trivial to reflash the reader. I did it, but a couple of times I thought I have bricked my device. I had to download various packages and do some commandline magic with utility written in python to set my device into the state needed for a second reflash attempt.

You can still use non-russified, original firmware Sony reader to read books in Azbuka. You just need to convert the books into pdf. That should be easy, if you use Calibre and perhaps OpenOffice.org Writer.
