But why? The eb-1150 is a 5.6" device and the e-INK is likely a 6" device so there is not much physical size difference. If we consider the font size needed to provide a good reading experience there is very little difference. You pick a font that provides the same size page and you're all set. Just because the resolution is higher doesn't mean you need to cram more data on the page. The font sizes used on the eB-1150 already provide the similar amount of data per page as most of the e-Ink devices so you just pick the right font and everything should be fine.
