+1. As you can see from the photo, I read with pretty large font and need to use as much screen real estate as possible. I measured the "printable area" of my 3yo kindle keyboard. It comes out to ~ 9cm x 11cm = 99cm^2. 14.2cm diagonal (5.6in). Would appreciate if someone takes the same measurement with the aura, for epub and kepub.
