There's no question that Solr and ElasticSearch have more capability than PostgreSQL alone, but you'd be surprised at what Postgres can do! It's certainly more than just full text search. Check out this article [1] that talks about Postgres' support for stemming, ranking / boost, multiple languages, fuzzy search, and accent support.

Still, I would describe most of those features as 'basic', as you really need some support for all that to use full-text search in real life and I wonder how easy it is to add/remove stopwords or other tweaks like that.
Anyway, thank you very much for the link, very interesting! I've been looking at PostGIS as an option for a project I'm working on and using PostgreSql as the main db is getting more and more points... Thanks!
