Agree. I have 1000s of technical PDF data, 100s of old scanned magazines, dozens of old PDF scanned books. They are not going to work on less than 10" and even then some are tricky. Some need colour.
A 13.8" Sony Paper might be nice if I was rich or a Company gave it to me. It's orientated to annotating internal Office PDFs. Doesn't even support eBooks!. Costs about x2 a decent laptop and up to x7 a 10" LCD tablet.
Samsung does a rather expensive tablet with a true stylus. All ordinary eInk and tablet touch are rubbish for stylus use because capacitive or IR are low resolution. You need resistive or Wacom as well as capacitive/IR for touch.
In 1980s to 2007 the Capacitive and IR was only used for Kiosks because handwriting and sketched annotation needed resistive resolution. The 1st iPhone was a success because of cheap data plan (all else had been content creation / annotation per MegaByte or per second), so the bought in Fingerworks went BACK to the Kiosk content browsing model. Hence no copy/paste on 1st iPhone.
