My Garmin HRM and my power meter works with both my 500 and my 705.
On a side note-
I prefer my 705 even though its bigger and older.
It picks up my HRM,PM and the satelites reception quicker than the 500.

Both models use ANT+ so they should both be compatible with any ANT+ sensor.

The mounts are different though. In particular the 705 won't work with any standard out-front mount as they use the quarter-turn fitting for the 500 and similar units (you can use the 705 in standard out-front mounts with this adaptor though).
