Some things I wouldn't mind: - better/wider support for high-capacity SDHC cards - faster indexing from SD(HC) cards (to allow one to make proper/full use of the space) - better ability to organize/sort/group mp3s - an option to auto-zoom in to the content with PDFs, not having the device show white borders I also would be ecstatic if they turned their eBook Library software from the slow and unwieldy behemoth that it is into a more responsive and less crash-prone piece of software that made it easy to take full advantage of their "Collection" system (which is basically the same as GMail's "labels")--including the ability to autosort by title and/or by author within all collections (instead of having to manually do it every time you add new books). - Ahi |

I could add a wish for something about their ebook store but I'll be appropriately pessimistic and bet that there will be not a word spoken about changes in their content offerings. |

Oh and I agree with ZeePee announcement of wireless, they have already hinted so. But wireless a la phone carrier not WiFi Quote:
Also prior to the upgrade reading PDF was absolutely terrible after the upgrade PDF support was quite excellent. |

Okay, fine. I think Sony will announce a new 55" LED ebook reader that will blow the socks off of all current LCD and plasma ebook readers. It will also come with its own gibbon for transporting the reader and the required nuclear device to power it. Bananas sold separately.

My guess would be depending on how the old devices can handle the new features. I do hope we get justified ePub support and dictionary support for the 700 if not the 505.
