Interesting.
I think a lot of the 6” eReaders have a 1500mAh battery. But I would have to check because I don’t trust my memory. If that were the case, this battery would be smaller, lending to perhaps a new “mini” 5-inch e-reader.
With the Clara having been just launched @ 6”, and the Aura One with it’s huge screen requiring a much bigger battery, I would think the niche in the product lineup would be either an update to the H2O 2 (6.8”), or a new 5”.
A 5” eReader, while popular as an ultraportable compared to all the other 6” eReaders, could come in at a lower price point making entry into the eReader market easier for consumers on the fence about the technology.
Also, some die-hates might be pleased to pick up a second (or third) device for cheap.
