I acutually prefer that rather than the half-assed way most of the readers implement full justification.

The 505 is a great reader I have both the astak PP, and the 505 along with the Kindle2 and the one I use the most (almost constantly) is the 505. That's my story. If I were to rank them I think the 505 would slightly edge out the Kindle2 but they really are fairly equivalent for my uses (reading novels/stories and a bit of non-fiction downloaded via Calibre). I find the 5" screen a bit too small and don't care for the UI on the Aztak PP.
