Oh that's an interesting comment, coming from a multi device user!
Yes..... I suppose I'm quite happy with the screen size of my little Sony while reading a novel. It's not like I'm reading and thinking, 'Darn, if only the screen was bigger!'
I just thought a bigger screen will be easier, especially for college text books and notes and stuff like that. I also want to be able to write notes on the screen with the stylus..... Maybe in the near future....
