I've used smartphones and PDAs for years to read. The screen is small, but for sitting in a waiting room someplace you can't beat it for portability. I've used Treos, WM phones, and currently a Blackberry. Most of the smartphones have apps available for them to read books like MobiPocket reader, eReader, etc.
Another good portable choice is the iPhone or iPod touch. I think the ipod touch is a little less than the cost of a 300 and well worth the price.
But I recommend you keep your 505 for when you want to read at home on a larger screen.
Having said all that, I love my 300 and it is a great reader. But like others warned, please don't put it in your pocket as sooner or later you will mess it up.
