I think 7" in good for a basic reader, but for most textbooks, I think 12" - 14" would be better. I just ordered an iPad while still waiting for Kno to ship (if they ever ship). This way I can at least try out the 9.7" screen and see if it'll work for me.

I suppose it's what you plan to port. For me, it's textbooks. Considering I have textbooks that are over 6 lbs., weight is a huge consideration. Anything half that size and under that can carry "all" of my books would be wonderful!

You might look into the 7" HTC Flyer that's coming out. It would be my ideal tablet if it was 12-14" which I hope they'll bring out within a year.
