Sony eReader vs. Kindle2

What is the difference between the Kindle2 and Sony Touch Edition?


1st thing that hit me about the Sony; to download a book, you have to connect a USB cable to a laptop or stand alone PC connected to the internet, even though they have AT&T wireless for browsing. Per their web site: USB Port required for Reader connection.
[Nook has wireless downloads; Barnes and Noble's Nook has an expected shipping date Jan 4.]
*Kindle2 downloads wirelessly
*Kindle2 does not have an expandable memory
*Sony eReader is compatible with Mac and PC
*Sony eReader is compatible with multiple eBook stores
