Yep, my Sony 650 is a workhorse and does a very good job with annotations and highlighting and constancy of firmware. Also of course the PRS + enhancement is just the icing on the cake.
I've owned the Glo for a week now and my first impression has yet to change - it feels cheap with not much depth to it's firmware.
There's only intermittent results with annotations and highlighting - they just disappear, and sometimes some of them come back. The font changing itself problems with this new update, and page rendering issues as well are some of the issues.
The fact that is is lit is the only plus for me, because I need to use 2 book lights (one on either side) to enjoy reading on the Sony in a lot of indoor lighting situations.
But - one would expect Sony to get it right because they are a company that has been working in computers and software/hardware technology for years. Kobo is new to the hardware/software line and it shows, eh!
