We need to separate functionality and options. Of course BP devices have a lot more options than Kindle but... my PB903 systematically crashes when configuring, sometimes is not capable to read from microSD, and sometimes becomes autistic... However, Kindle, with a lot of less options, is a rock: I've managed ALL Kindles since 2USA (2 USA, 2 intl, DX usa, DX intl, DXG and K3 3G) and I've never had a crash or a problem.
And another thing tha has been said here: fbreader lacks a lot of formating. Form example, my Analog SFF and Asimov's, that are perfectly viewed in my Kindles, does not view in my PB so good. Some formats are ignored, like relative text size and indentations.
And finally another lack all big screen devices have: column view. In a so wide screen, read so wide text is not optimal. Only CoolReader have the two column option, and I do not understand why all manufacturers use fbreader instead of coolreader when this last has a lot of more functionality...
