For me the decision was on note-taking ability and on that basis the Sony is superior in its ability to handle handwriting in addition to text based notes and highlighting. If I didn't need the notetaking I wouldn't get either and would probably stick with my Cybook Gen3 or with a new Sony 300 for pure reading enjoyment.
I concur with the overall negatives of the Kindle2 being disfunctional and unattractive form factor and the Amazon link to and ability to manipulate your device through Whispernet. The Whispernet seems to be a big draw for some people but the whole point of the device was so that I could load everything I wanted onto it and therefore never have a book "emergency" where I needed to download something without access to a computer.
