I played with it on my PRS-300 briefly and then took it off. It has more features than the standard Sony firmware but the interface is still pretty clunky and doesn't support many of the reader's buttons (changing font size requires you to back out of the book, go into settings, change the size, and then go back into the book -- the font size button on the reader doesn't work).
I'm keeping an eye on this because the PRS-300 uses an ancient version of ADE that doesn't justify epub books and LRF is basically dead. For now I'm using the Sony firmware and converting to LRF but if this gets better I may put it back on.
Edit: What I said above was true for the last version. I just installed 1.6.1.0 and the font size button now works while reading a book. There are still a few fit and finish type issues that are annoying (no margin control other than whatever's in the book, the Home button doesn't always go Home like you'd expect, lack of loading info except when opening a book, etc). I also had a few issues with flipping back and forth between the Sony firmware and this (I had to reset to get into the new firmware, which cleared the clock. The only way to set the clock is through the Sony firmware, but I had to reset again to get back to the option to choose my firmware thus resetting the clock, ...).
