When my wife and I bought the first iPad, she always hated how big and clunky it felt. She didn't want to carry it in her purse, and although the screen was great for videos and web surfing, she never really enjoyed the 9.7" display size. I didn't mind it so much, but I did think it was a little big (and heavy with the iPad 1).
I think the Kindle HD 8.9" might be just the right size for comfortable web browsing and PDF viewing, without making it huge like the 10.1" Android tablets out today. 10.1" is great for movies and games, but eReading can easily be more natural on an 8.9" display.
