For surfing the web -maybe- the iPad wins just due to it's size, but the text, even large, takes you aback after being used to the 'retina' display.

I know many disagree, maybe I'm just picky, but for books, I'll take my iPod still.
Nah, I think you'll find that for people who've actually used an iPod Touch 4th gen/iPhone 4 the iPad's pixelated screen is a step backwards. Back when I had a 3GS, I used my iPhone 16GB (2G) as back-up reader when I'm charging my phone. After upgrading to the iPhone 4, I just couldn't go back to using my old iPhone anymore.
