Yeah, I'd agree they're definitely not in the same league yet, but I think all indications are pointing in that direction. You see Sony trying to address the amount of content issues now, so I would suspect that they've got some of their developers working on software enhancement and interface issues now as well. They seem to be going "bang bang bang" down the list, plugging away at the issues which many have said are keeping Sony from becoming a "Kindle killer". Whether or not they'll succeed is a whole 'nother story...
I'm also hoping that this push from Sony's side will make Amazon wake up and smell the coffee, and realize that closing off their system like they're trying to do with the protected MOBI files isn't really in their best interest. If Amazon can fully embrace a more open stance with the protected MOBI issue, then I think they will leave Sony in the dust with little hope of catching up no matter what improvements Sony's got planned.
