The Gen 3 has folders, but you can't see them (you always get a flat listing, but the folders may change the listing order).

The Sony has "collections". I'm not exactly sure what these are, but they are not folders.

The Kindle 1 and 2 are alike in most characteristics. Neither one has folders (that appear in ebook listings). What they do have is full system text search. So, uniquely among EInk readers, you could find an ebook based on its contents. If you have a very large collection of ebooks I don't think the Kindles will work well. They might be ok for moderately large collections.
I've read my .lit files perfectly on my EZ Reader...but yeah the option to convert lit to .mobi works better for some.
