I like my 6.8" Kobo Aura HD, but the 6" screens seem more convenient for traveling and are lighter when reading for several hours. My limited experience with my one 8" reader is that it's just too big and uncomfortable to hold for long stretches of time.
But the Forma at 8" is a lighter then the Aura H2O. And the Forma is only 42g heavier then the Touch Lux 5.

I do think that PB should have a 7" and an 8" Reader. It goes 6", 7.8", 10.3 at present.

Given that the Libra and Forma as selling and the Oasis 3 is selling, it seems that the 6" Reader may not be long for this world. I think 7" should replace 6".
