It's funny how nobody has mentioned the dictionary feature in the Sony readers. It has the best integrated dictionary system in any e-reader. The PRS650 already had 2 English dictionaries and 5 bilingual ones. The T1 improved it by reducing the 2 taps to one long one to bring up the word. However it did not have French-French dictionary in the T1.
I looked at the T3 in the Sony shop in Paris and it now has not only a French-French but also monolingual dictionaries for Spanish and German too.
Considering that English speaking readers have had the advantage of having both the Oxford dictionary of English and American English, this is only finally putting the situation right for French readers.
Since I read occasionally in German, Italian and Spanish too, this feature of the Sony readers is a real boon.
