well, i'd be the first to admit i don't know either of these two products deeply, but for the kinds of applications i have for web services, i found jersey to have really easy, transparent support for request parameter processing. you just annotate some parameters, create a jaxb schema and add an @Path attribute and you've pretty much got a web service. although it looks like a nice architecture that sticks to REST terminology, i at least couldn't find how restlet made some of this grunt work easy (but then maybe i missed that somehow).
