Kind of an esoteric question

Hello. I'm new to this list and all. I have a Sony Reader PR-500. I love this reader but I have to admit if I thought I could afford it would I have gone with the PR-700. But I digress. I have the 500 series and I notice that Sony sells a cover with book light. I know it says it's only compatible with the PR-505, but has anyone ever tried using it with the PR-500? The best I can see is it would block the Prev/Next buttons that reside on the top left side of the reader. I would imagine the window with the light would almost work.

I guess what I could do is bring my 500 to my local Target that is selling these reading lights and see if I can talk them into letting me open a box and see if it would work. But I thought I would ask here first. It would be great if it really could work. But I do know the positioning of buttons and such changed between 500 and 505 (and frankly I like the positioning of the 500 better).

Ah... now this is what I wanted to hear. Yes, the 500 has this weird hole in the back that snaps onto the cover. I hadn't seen the back of a 505 series... which is why I wanted to open one of the boxes at Target but alas they were sealed and there was no salesperson around to ask.

I'll have to think about velcro though. Thank you for the information. :)
