Why does the Cybook take so long to boot up compared to the Sony 500? Any "knowledgeable comments" or just opinions?
Because you're not "booting" the Sony - just switching it out of standby mode. That's why the Sony drains its battery when it's "off", but the CyBook doesn't.

Switch off your PRS-500 by pressing the "Reset" button on the back and THEN do the comparison. I think you'll find that the CyBook "wins" by a considerable margin then .
