I read on a PDA so 5" would be plenty big enough for me. I want something I can stuff in a jacket pocket and not feel TOO bad about if it gets broken.
No it had the same resolution as a 6" device so it can't be a part of the screen. Netronix has had a 5" device in their list of products for some time and e-Ink has had it for years at this point. It may now see the light of day from this post or maybe from Astek as they also have announced one of these but not yet delivered. It has 200 ppi which could give it an advantage for those that feel 166 ppi is not enough.
