You mention that Sony and Amazon have not released any major firmware updates. Is there a core ability that needs to be repaired (not just tweaked)? I can't think of any, other than a few fringe geek-wants.

Both Sony and Amazon have released devices that could reasonably be described as post beta. Irex has not.
Did any other supplier deliver such perfect PDF zoom? Does any other OS allow "on the fly" changing author's name or book title or adding comments?
Do Sony or Amazon support folders, which many consider "core ability"?
iRex certainly has its flaws. But I'd still rank iLiad within my top 3 (1000S being too bulky for me) and lots of guys agree: (One of the) best PDF engines so far.
BTW: I'll certainly buy both, Sony Daily Edition and iRex 800.
