Thinner and lighter needs to stop. We need good batteries, not weak ones because the device is too thin for a good solid battery.
I want to see these devices with the larger screens have a good battery. They don't in order to go thinner and lighter.

I'm with you on LCD/LED tablets, where the thinness fetish has materially hurt the user experience by limiting battery lives to the point where it can be annoying.
But we're talking about e-ink readers here. They already last weeks on a single charge, and larger ones are going last longer simply because there's more battery area in them.
