Look at it this way, Cake keeps its structure simple and completely php-based so you don't have to use the command line if you don't want to, which symfony has you doing all of the time. The only time I use the command line is at the beginning of a project, and that's using the bake.php script. But the cool thing is I don't HAVE to use bake.php. Also, who wants to use yaml in their php applications?? No one would use them in a normal php application (unless you're crazy), so why use it now? With cake you're up and running in about a half hour. I tried getting symfony up and running and after 4 hours I gave up.
The other reason is speed. While codeigniter is faster than cake (not by much), it's not as mature or as cool to use, and symfony's so complicated that it's about 5-10 times slower than cake. So there's my two bits. I tried symfony awhile back in my pre- framework days and I almost lost my head trying to wrap it around symfony. Go with cake, it's your best choice.
