I think so, but I can see a time (version 510 perhaps?) where a bluetooth or infrared keyboard such as Palm devices use, or with a USB port, which would attach to the bottom of the 505 (510, whatever they number the next version) for use with dictionaries, to play word games with, to enter notes and memos, might be possible.

That way the Sony would retain it's very excellent form factor most of the time but those who wish could use a keyboard with it when desired.

The Kindle looks way too awkward to be of comfortable reading capability the way my 500 is.
