I guess there is absolutely no point if you only read fiction. If a map or appendix is needed, it could be provided as "popup" content (those linear=no in the content.opf file of epubs) so that you could look it up and be right back to your current reading page...
A larger display allowing you to have a split display would be good but 13" is not exactly portable anymore: it wouldn't fit in my (admittedly rather small) backpack. Unless it's foldable. But if I could replace my work computer screen with an e-ink display, that would be great!
