I wanted the larger screen primarily for PDF's. Before the Fire I would agree the screen is too small for magazines. However the Fortune and Wired apps do a good job of handling it. I also like the Amazon way of handling magazine view to text view. This allows me to enjoy the look of the magazine page with the ease of reading the text when in text view. For sure the iPad allows one to view and read a magazine the way it was published and that probably should be the goal. Taking into consideration the light weight and ease of holding the Fire I can live with the compromise. A compromise I don't believe is a loss of quality but I do understand your view.
