A larger size would be great for musicians

if you could display 8.5 x 11 and allowed annotations AND allowed PDFs to be uploaded, many many poor and muscle sore musicians would be rejoicing -- particularly those that play anything larger than say... a piccolo!

There is actually a dedicated music reader device out there now that costs around 1000 bucks and it does little more than any of the eink devices.

I do think Amazon should wait, though, a little longer between releases because that is kind of a slap in the face to those who waited for the K2 and then have that be "obsolete" already... If they do do something like that, they need to offer a reasonable trade-in program... (yeah, I realize technology is constantly evolving but this smacks of planned obsolescence for the sake of pure greed.)
