I've used a SanDisk 2Gb SD card in my 505 with no problems.

I have a PNY Optima 4GB SDHC since I bought my 505 and it works perfectly.

Sandisk 8Gb SDHC working perfectly. Latest firmware and card formatted under W7 as FAT32, 32k blocks

Thanks for your help on this. I actually tried a SanDisk SD card that had been formated for a Cannon camera and it seems to work just fine.
I really like the added storage, I have loaded a bunch of music to listen to while reading. This is one advantage of having the older versions of the sony reader, I don't think the new ones have this audio ability.
Cheers,
Phil
