                The most obvious visual difference between the 510 and the 500 is that the former has a colour screen whereas the latter was old skool grayscale. In terms of using the devices, the 510 has a touch screen, with the majority of features and screens accessed by navigating menus on the screen itself.Oct 1, 2013
