Absolutely. I regard the iLiad as a different class, personally. It's like the difference between a laptop and a UMPC. The iLiad is larger and harder to tote around. Plus it has the boot time and battery issues. It has great features and can do a lot more than most readers, but I think of it as a work/study tool rather than a replacement for tossing a novel in my handbag.
Of the smaller readers I put Cybook and Kindle as practically neck and neck and the Sony a distant third. Sony could close that gap with some serious work on their firmware, but for now I regard them as a barebones device.
