Kobo's E Ink product line consists of 6-inch and 6.8-inch devices, both of which sell well, with the 6-inch devices selling the most (and the 6-inch size is also the best-seller for their competitors).
My father, even though he had no use for such a tiny device bought one because it was on for $24.99 in NFLD.
