So the sizes should be:

8" - 8.25" for books
14.3" for A4 documents

I realize that 14.3", if made of glass, might break easily. It should be plastic or metal foil
12" is the best they can do for you

I am thinking about buying a developer kit ...these might come in bigger sizes
Now the question is ..are there any chances to connect one of these to ...what..a PC (no way) or an retail ereader like M92?
I have no idea about the hardware architecture of an ereader. Have you guys seen any docs regarding this?
I vaguely remember that I read that the eInk display can be cut in any size. Now..what is included in a developer kit is the interesting part.
