I'm very happy with my 505. Admittedly I only have a couple of thousand books on the SD card, but the scan/index time is maybe 10 minutes. Since I don't use it for ephemeral content (newspapers, etc.), just books, I might only load something once a week or so. Generally I just schedule it for right when I'm about to do something that is not reading, so it doesn't matter if it's spending ten minutes, or an hour for that matter, twiddling its thumbs.

One practical solution might be to put those 13,000 books on several smaller cards, and just pop in the card you happen to need. I'm planning to do that anyway just to cut down on the number of titles I have to page through to get to the one I want.

But anyway, I'm happy with it the way it's working for me.
