Different people have different requirements. The main reason I sold my iLiad was that I found it too large to conveniently carry around with me everywhere, as I did with my former Sony and my current CyBook. For me personally (and many other people too), devices with 6" screens are the perfect size for reading fiction.

The other reason I sold it was that the MobiPocket Reader implementation for the iLiad is just horrible, and that won't get improved.
