I can't speak for the Sony, but I've had a Cybook, and have just gotten a Bebook. I think it's definitely nicer to have direct access to functions via buttons instead of having to step through a menu.
I never got comfortable with the page turn button on the Cybook - IMO it's placed so that you can't comfortably rest your thumb there. The Bebook is better in that respect, with two options. FWIW, I'm a woman with largish hands - I guess the Cybook might fit better for a man with large hands.
I think the Cybook supports mobi very well, but any other format not very well. It might change with the new firmware.
The Bebook supports a wider range of formats, but overall the support is more 'adequate' than 'good'.
