Tech never evolves the way you'd expect. Get over it. The fact that the Kindle is Amazon's number one selling product is, in and of itself, an amazing and positive development. And by Christmas, we'll probably see a number of 6" devices selling for around $100. Are you disappointed in that?

Of course he will be because he wants something larger than 6".
One of the main & most beneficial attractions of the 5 & 6" readers is that they are lighter than pbooks & you can carry it around with your entire library if you so choose. The whole intent of the majority of ereaders is to be PORTABLE! A coffee table book size ereader kind of defeats that purpose.
They are focusing on the largest market segment for book readers which is most likely readers of novels.
Don't like it, stick with pbooks. But for the vast majority of us, we are satisfied with how the progress is going with the ebook market. Or actually most of us don't give a crap, since we are too busy reading our books on our 5 & 6" readers!
