How is what Sony and iRex doing wrong? iRex announced their V2 already and Sony is selling off old stock via the credit card offer for about $60. I don't think the VizPlex screen is worth $240 (roughly) over the old screen. For all we know, Sony might not be ready with the 505 yet and have not announced it. We really do not know. But what we do know is there is no 505 for sale now. It's not hidden while all they show is the 500. And it is a new model at that so you don't just buy a 500 and get the old one (no Vizplex) when you could have bought a new one (with Vizplex).
