I primarily used the tablet for reading e-books, doing some light web browsing and checking Facebook. For all of you who have phablets or have owned them, how comfortable is it to read e-books on them? Is the screen size just right or too small? I'm thinking I wouldn't mind as I read plenty of books on my PRS-350. However, I wonder if phablets have more narrow screens than the 350, meaning that less text can fit on the screen.
Very personal thing.

I don't like them. The smaller I can go is iPad Mini, and it's because it's aspect ratio.

Phablets are too narrow and small for reading, in my opinion. Too big for being a phone and too small for being a tablet.
