Interesting.

To me, the weight and lightness is important.

Now, don't know the limit yet. I know there will be a point that I will consider it too light or difficult to hold 'cause is too tiny or too light. Not sure if 6 oz will be or is my limit for that. As a matter of fact, if Apple reduce the iPad's weight again, I will probably sell mine; my dream is having an iPad with same weight as a Kindle DXG (or a DXG as fast as an iPad, touchscreen maybe? lol )

The bezel is another important point. Too narrow and see my fingers obstructing the screen and I won't like that probably.

But I guess Amazon has made heavy R&D and marketing research on those points.
