For fiction, I prefer a 6" display. I love my PRS505. However, when it comes to tech documents, and things of that nature, a small screen sucks, because most are PDFs and the information doesn't reflow well.q

I'd vote for the 8" screen my device has, but it's not on your list.

For reading pocketbooks? I'm good with 5-6". For reading magazines, pdfs, etc, the closer to an 8.5x11 the better.
I could use the larger reader for the pocket books, fo course, but I'd probalby want to use it in landscape and have two pages presented at a time. The reason for this is its hard to scan across long lines of text (for me anyway) without losing your place. |

Really, I wanted to vote 5" to pocket (it fits in hand, is light and fit in all my bags), for going out, and voted 10", because is a good size for tecnich books, images, etc.
