You can be a manipulative bastard, divine behind every door, plane shift the party, whatever. Sorcerers can learn to do one or two things extremely well, but if you have the downtime a high level wizard can accomplish almost anything.
And Warlocks (from Complete Arcane) manage to eat the Sorcerer's lunch. They get their Big Bang at will, and they have other great at will abilities and damage resistance.
