Nor does the Sony. It supports "Collections", which are sort-of "pseudo-folders", but it doesn't have genuine folder support. There's a firmware upgrade coming for the Gen3 this month, and folders are one of the things that have been strongly hinted-at for it.

People make a fuss about folders, but to be honest, having used these things for more years than I care to remember, I don't think it's worth losing sleep over. Organise your books on your PC; carry what you plan to read in the next few weeks or months on the reading device.

Why on Earth would you want a Kindle? The one thing it offers is wireless downloads, which since you don't buy commercial eBooks, would be irrelevent to you. As a reader, both the Sony and the CyBook are better. The Kindle, for example, only supports a single font, which is very restrictive.
