Text is text is text; and the only difference between the screens is size, not DPI or shades of gray or background color. The main reason why a large panel is preferable (to some) for text is that it requires fewer page turns.

Otherwise, considering that paperbacks are every bit as readable as a hardcover, size doesn't matter.
