I agree, by itself, bigger isn't an innovation. It's just bigger. If people were really demanding a larger reader in large numbers, the Kindle DX would have sold better. My Kindle Keyboard and my Paperwhite both fit in my pocket - it's a squeeze, but they fit.

Do people really want speech recognition for their e-reader? Features that are only wanted by a few wind up costing a lot of money with little return. If someone wants to build a Kindle-killer, by all means they should do so. But that doesn't mean people will want to buy it.
