Well to start with there's the same blurb about page turning for both Sony and Kindle which isn't true in either case:
"1-1.5 sec page turning time ( screen update) through black and white "splash" on the screen. After 40-50 pages of reading eyes get tired due to this effect. Number of artifacts from the previous page left on the next page, causing "dirty" marks."
Then they say there's no justification setting when there is.

Like Sony, they say you can only get books through the proprietary store when there are vast sources of books available free and for purchase just like the Jetbook.

They list the mp3 player, but not that it has Audible support.

All in all, it seems the treatment of Kindle was pretty much the same as Sony.
