I see this again and again

"I'll never buy a kindle without buttons"
"I'll never buy a galaxy without sd slot or replaceable battery"
"I'll never buy a curved TV"

For better or worse, companies don't seem to do market research by listening to what we who frequent geeky forums have to say
The issue isn't how many people here would buy it; it is how many people who don't frequent geeky forums would want to buy it.

My own expectation is that Amazon isn't going to make the case of their kindles more than a few millimeters bigger; if they can fit a bigger screen they might do it--if they can't they won't.

And I don't think they can go bigger than 6in with current tech.
