And nor does it have dictionary lookup, the ability to load your own fonts, proper support for font families, a user-replaceable battery, and a world-wide warranty, all of which the Gen3 does. Yes, the Gen3 is more expensive but it is (IMHO, speaking as a former Sony owner) well worth paying the extra for.

Actually, not that it is a major reason for choosing it, the Sony does represent more of a 'challenge' in terms of hacking (to add those functions you mention). When I'm not in the mood for reading I can fool around with the reader OS-wise. Admittedly the same goes for the Cybook...
OTOH, seeing all the comments about the Cybook, I believe in the near/not-too-far future I'll 'convince' my wife she too absolutely needs a reader, which coincidentally will be a Cybook...
