I know this isn't your point, but as an aside, that screen looks good on the Voyage. Do you think Amazon is already getting their screen problem solved?
As for the screen size -- for fiction at any rate -- I can't see the advantage of the bigger screen size. It seems like it results uncomfortably longer line lengths -- as usually the font sizes seem to be the same. Probably doesn't mean anything, but at one point I think I learned the ideal line length was 35 to 40 characters. I find that's usually about where my eReaders line lengths end up for me. (Of course they're not fixed characters so it's just a approximation.)
