Let's not imply the Kobo is bigger than it is. It is listed at 6.91 which is smaller than a 7". That's still in the small category, but bigger than the 6". Here is a comparison:

I had a Kindle DX which was 9.7, and that was too big. I do think around the 7" size is the sweet spot, and I don't want to go much smaller than that. Personally I find the Aura HD to be small and very light compared to my 7" Android tablet.

Also I find the higher pixel density an advantage when choosing lighter fonts.
