The resolution is the real area where the race is on with these devices, making a device marginally bigger is not that a big deal since it also has the downside of making the device a bit heavier reducing one of the obvious advantages these devices have over small tablets.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if amazon will end up using this larger display in the next kindle, but I am sure that many would prefer a higher rez version of the current 6" display.
