The Cybook can read more formats. That's it actually, at least from my perspective.
Content, for me personally, is a non-issue: I read things from public domain only, or from the darknet.

Even battery life, as some posts ago I saw discussed, is not so important for me: how many pages do you happen to turn, in a typical reading session?

Most important I find the supported formats: I dont see HTML on Sony, and that puzzles me - possibly I will go html->rtf...
