Which One to get Sony 505 or Cybook Gen3?

Hi all,
Sorry to ask a question that has been answered many times before on these forums,
But I have been reading threads for a couple of days now, and I don't seem any closer to a decision.....

I have managed to narrow my choice down to 2 though.

The Sony 505 @ £200 delivered.
and the Cybook Gen3 £180 delivered.

The reason I have settled on these is simply availabilty and price (I live in the U.K).

They both appear to be roughly the same size and spec with some minor differences.

The main thing that I will use it for is probably novels (various different formats) Although I do have a few pdf's (none with drm) i.e Linux for Dummies (which is a mix of mostly text, but some pictures).
I know that niether of them display pdf's that well. But maybe one does better than the other?

I'm leaning towards the Cybook beacuase its slightly cheaper and has a few extra features over the sony.

Could anyone give me help in which way to go ?
Many thanks
