The reason Wizards are so strong compared to Sorcerers isn't really to do with the whole spell slots per day vs versatility. That's what makes them unique and doesn't really need touching.
Its that INT is
a) Easier to gear for and doesn't take up the cloak slot for saves.
b) INT gives skill points. INT is also required for combat expertise.
c) All CHA based feats are locked behind class levels. IE Divine shield/grace requires Paladin levels per CHA mod to use properly
d) Wizards get bonus feats at 5/10/15/20.
None of those things will stop a sorcerer from shitting on a wizard or any other caster class for that matter.
a. who cares, both are very simple to gear
b. anything less than 14 int on any build is stupid, i do think everything but wizard should get at least 4 base skill points though
c. so what? mage armor, epic mage armor, haste are not
d. it's nice, but not really a big deal; casters dont need feats other then spell focus and fort saves
