Ah, yes, I see. I usually do not (and had to go back and look) pay attention to any marketing blurb (or is it burp) when searching for specifications.

Makes perfect sense (even if it is wrong). There is a reason 14" CRT monitors were so popular, as they did allow a full page to be shown. Possibly the standard for epaper size is going to be the 13.3" now with a wrong aspect ratio of 4:3. (Hard to do with epaper, but how is one to fold paper airplanes correctly with a letter sized thing that changes aspect ratio everytime you fold it in half?)
