Hey fellow 505 owner! It really is the best damn e-reader I could imagine, I bought mine back in 2009 and it is still perfect… Well except the case, it’s been peeling and looking rough for a good decade now.
Interestingly 1984 was the first book I read on it, but I agree, Fuck Amazon!
I tried finding a good case, but all of them are just rotten at this point. I even got the one with the integrated nightlight and it turned into literal dust in my hands.
At this point I am honestly considering making my own, out of some leather. It can’t be that difficult, can it? :D

I’m just thinking out loud but maybe a sleeve would be easier to DIY and then the reader would feel lighter in your hands without a case.
