I've owned Sony since June and iLiad for 3 weeks. Both are great devices :-) I agree, pdflrf makes pdf files readable on Sony. But I like dropping the technical pdf books on iLiad without any conversion. Very few times I changed it to landscape. Portrait mode is good enough after zooming the page to get rid of white margins.

For me Sony is a great device to read fiction books (and, sometimes, NY Times). It's lighter and smaller, so it's easy to hold it in one hand when standing in subway. iLiad is great to get news wirelessly from my computer (hopefully soon from internet), it's good to take notes, play sudoku and chess, and of course, read A4 pdf files.
