I think Bookeen and Pocketbook appeal to different types of users. I'm a Bookeen type myself: I want something robust and simple, and as long as the reading comfort is good, I'm happy enough. Pocketbook is probably more for people who want more functionalities and don't mind acting as beta testers now and then (a few bugs are OK as long as the firmware is updated often enough).
Generally speaking though, techies seem to be overly fond of wars and seem to feel best when there is an Evil Enemy to fight. Or maybe that's just the Internet effect?
I wonder if hardback lovers ever get into similar fights with the paperback crowd?
