I am currently debating over the 600, iliad or the iriver story.....
If I should rank the 3 units you suggest:

#1: iLiad - still one of my favorites, even after more than 2 years.
iRex 800 is tough competition though. Starting to grow on me.

#2: Sony 600 - has been a very positive surprise. But it's hard to find arguments against Sony 900, which has a slightly better display/contrast.

#3: Iriver Story - one of the (very) few units I didn't consider to buy (although easily available here in Germany). Looks very Kindle-like and I couldn't find any real arguments for buying it in comparison to, let's say, Kindle 2, Sony 505 or Cybook Gen3.

2 readers with touchscreen and 1 without, how's that?
If you're not into touchscreen, may I suggest Sony 505? Still a brillant unit, best display ever, very cheap right now. End of life, but very well established and service shouldn't be a problem for many years.

Are you into PDFs? If so, iRex iLiad would be my first choice.
